[QUOTE="Nick72, post: 579036, member: 10459"]Good day to all. 3 years ago picked-up this framed print that was on the side of the road, it attracted my attention because of the beautiful colors and also the subject, it was about to Pour big time as a storm was coming so i guess i saved it from destruction! I know these are reproductions of the Celestial plates from Andreas Cellarius that were Published by Petrum and Schenk in the Nederlands in the 17th Century. I find this one lovely, very well done, vivid colors. The plate Imprint in the paper is 1/2" outside of the Etched area. When looked through the light you can see like on the picture that the Laid paper used was from the Van Gelder Zonen paper manufacture in The Nederlands. I have seen other ones very similar to mine printed on Good quality Laid Paper from different paper factories. My question is when were these produced and by Whom, there only seems to be a few plates that were reproduced ( perhaps the more appealing ones), Plates 22 to 29 and 25 and 28 being the most common. I know they are not worth much but i like it quite a bit and will frame it appropriately. Thanks in advance and have a great day.[IMG]https://i.imgur.com/SU5U85b.jpg[/IMG] [IMG]https://i.imgur.com/VHe48q7.jpg[/IMG] [IMG]https://i.imgur.com/owupUBo.jpg[/IMG] [IMG]https://i.imgur.com/JMYIPIg.jpg[/IMG] [IMG]https://i.imgur.com/FB3FZkt.jpg[/IMG] [IMG]https://i.imgur.com/JMYIPIg.jpg[/IMG] [IMG]https://i.imgur.com/Qf0Bbtm.jpg[/IMG][/QUOTE]
