EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the birth and baptismal certificate for Eva Eissenhaer, created around 1773 by Sussel-Washington Artist. Measuring 16.5x20 cm, this exquisite piece of artwork is housed in the Rare Book Department of the Free Library of Philadelphia. The delicate pen and ink, along with watercolor on paper, beautifully depict a significant moment in Eva's life. The artist's naive style adds a touch of innocence and charm to this handwritten document written in Pennsylvania Deutsch. This traditional folk art piece captures the essence of colonial times, showcasing intricate calligraphy that details Eva's birth and christening. It serves as a testament to the importance placed on documenting such milestones during that era. Eva's parents' names are carefully inscribed alongside her own, highlighting their role in her upbringing. The German influence is evident throughout the painting, reflecting cultural heritage through its meticulous details. As we gaze upon this remarkable artifact from history, we are transported back to an era where every detail mattered and preserving one's lineage was paramount. This evocative image not only celebrates Eva Eissenhaer but also pays homage to the craftsmanship and artistic talent that went into creating such cherished documents. In collaboration with Bridgeman Images, Fine Art Finder brings us closer to these historical treasures while reminding us of our shared human experience across time.
