EDITORS COMMENTS
This black and white lithograph print showcases the remarkable talent of Francois Forster, a renowned French-Swiss engraver. Created by Pierre Petit, a skilled photographer, this portrait captures Forster in all his glory during the years 1865-66. With half of his body visible, Forster's dignified presence is evident as he gazes confidently into the distance. Forster was born on August 22nd, 1790 and left an indelible mark on the art world until his passing on June 25th, 1872. His exceptional skills as an engraver earned him recognition both in France and Switzerland. This lithograph serves as a testament to his artistic prowess. The signature of Francois Forster graces this print, adding a personal touch that further enhances its value. It is part of Victor Frond's illustrious work "Pantheon des illustrations francaises au XIX SiAcle" published between 1865-1866. Displayed against a plain background with no distractions, this portrait emphasizes Forster's contribution to the arts. The fine details captured through engraving techniques showcase not only his technical expertise but also reveal the depth of character within him. Preserved in private collection for years before being made available by ePurix Verlag Volker Christen, this print offers viewers an opportunity to appreciate one of history's most talented artists. As it falls out of copyright restrictions today, it can be admired freely by art enthusiasts worldwide.
