This black and white lithograph print, titled "The Invention of Printing" takes us back to the early 20th century. Created by the American School, this artwork is part of a private collection and was originally used as an illustration for Charles F Horne's book, "The World and its People". The image showcases a monumental public monument dedicated to the invention of printing. The architectural details in this piece are truly remarkable. The intricate design of the monument reflects the significance and impact that printing has had on society. It serves as a tribute to this groundbreaking invention that revolutionized communication and knowledge dissemination. In the foreground, we see people gathered around the monument, emphasizing its importance in their lives. Among them stands Faust, a fictional character known for his pact with the devil in exchange for unlimited knowledge. This inclusion adds depth to the artwork by symbolizing both the wonders and potential dangers associated with new inventions. Through lithography techniques, this print captures every fine detail with precision. The use of black and white enhances its timeless quality while adding a sense of nostalgia.
