Photochroms are produced by a color photo-lithographic process in which a black and white photographic negative is applied to multiple lithograph stones and colors are added, one stone at a time. The Detroit Photographic Company brought the people of the United States the very first color photographs and later extended their business into printed, colored post cards which were very popular at the time and which, to this day, are highly sought after by collectors of ephemera. \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-size: 14.0pt; font-family: 'Arial','sans-serif';\"\u003eThe Detroit Photographic Company, known as the Detroit Publishing Company beginning in 1905 until it liquidated its assets in 1932, brought the photochrom process from Switzerland in 1897. Late in 1897, William Henry Jackson (1843-1942), noted American photographer joined the company as a partner, adding thousands of negatives of USA landmarks produced by Jackson to the company’s inventory. Jackson had been a photographer with the U.S. Geological Survey in the 1870s, which took him all over the west and cemented his reputation as one of the foremost landscape photographers of his time. During the 1880s Jackson continued to travel extensively, photographing hotels, city views, railroad lines, important buildings, and more. Jackson was taken with the photochrom process because it captured color so naturalistically, and he would devote himself to it in his last years of active photography.

In 1949, the Edison Institute gave all of the negatives and many duplicate photographs to the Colorado Historical Society. The Colorado Historical Society transferred most of the negatives and prints for sites east of the Mississippi as well as others to the United States Library of Congress later that year. \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-size: 14.0pt; font-family: 'Arial','sans-serif';\"\u003eThe photochroms we are offering are taken by a large format camera and therefore show extraordinary detail.

This latter work was to become a definitive record of the history of European thought and a remarkable reference for all aspects of eighteenth-century European civilization.

These volumes were published between 1791-1798, and were edited by Lamarck \u0026amp; Bruguiere. The backdrop of the publication was the French Revolution, when, in 1793 Louis XVI and Marie Antoinette went to the guillotine. It was a time of great transformation in France \u0026amp; the reorganization in a democratic manner of many of the establishments previously dependent on the whims of royal patronage. The old Jardin des Plantes became the Musée National d'Histoire Naturelle (National Museum of Natural History), run by twelve professors in twelve different scientific fields, one of whom was Lamarck.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eJean Baptiste Pierre Antoine de Monet, Chevalier de Lamarck, born in 1744 to a military family, attended a Jesuit seminary for a short period before becoming a soldier, retiring with a distinguished battle record. Lamarck began to study medicine and botany; in 1778 his book on the plants of France, Flore Française, was published to great acclaim, in part due to the support of Buffon.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBuffon secured him a post as an underpaid assistant at the Jardin des Plantes, from which position he was able to propose the transformation of the Jardin des Plantes into the Natural History Museum. In the grandiose manner of the day, he was appointed to the study of “invertebrates” a word which he coined \u0026amp; a subject about which he knew little at the onset. He also coined the word “biology”.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eHis work was never popular during his lifetime. Lamarck did not enjoy the respect or prestige enjoyed by his patron Buffon or his colleague \u0026amp; rival Cuvier, who attempted to discredit his theories. Lamarck struggled with life long poverty \u0026amp; lack of recognition for his contributions to science. When he died, on December 28, 1829, he received a pauper’s funeral, buried in a grave for five years \u0026amp; then dug up, probably to be placed among the huge quantities of bones stored in the catacombs of Paris.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Panteek Antique Prints","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44659913490501,"sku":"BRU56a","price":225.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0642\/0830\/6245\/files\/LAS500.jpg?v=1771607862"},{"product_id":"goethe-original-chromolithograph-fruits-1894-purpurroter-kousinot-apple","title":"Goethe Original Chromolithograph  Fruits 1894 Purpurroter Kousinot Apple","description":"\u003cp style=\"text-align: center;\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePurpurroter Kousinot Apple\u003cbr\u003e6 3\/4 by 10 inches\u003cbr\u003eGO068 $45\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThese prints are highly decorative chromolithographs of apples and pears, in the manner of Duhamel de Monceau \u0026amp; quite beautifully displayed on the page.
