EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a remarkable piece of craftsmanship from the 19th century Austrian School. The long plane, measuring 63.5 cm in length, is a testament to the skill and artistry of its creator. Adorned with an exquisite gouged leaf and scroll frieze along its sides, this wooden plane is truly a work of decorative beauty. The top of the plane features intricate engravings depicting four carved dog roses, adding an extra touch of elegance to this already ornate tool. Its tapered and tipped plane iron can be adjusted using a threaded spindle in two bosses affixed to a cap iron. A stamp proudly declares "GARANTIERT" (warranted), accompanied by the Austro-Hungarian Empire double-headed eagle encircled by "WIEN" (Vienna) and "FLIR V. WERTHEIM" representing Flir vormals Franz Wertheim. It's worth noting that D. Flir was taken over by Joh. Weiss & Sohn in Vienna in 1911, further adding historical significance to this exceptional piece. This photograph captures not only the beauty but also the functionality of this traditional Viennese woodworking implement. It serves as a reminder of the immense talent possessed by carpenters during that era and their dedication to creating tools that were both practical and aesthetically pleasing. Displayed within the David Russell Collection, this woodwork treasure continues to inspire awe with its intricate design and rich history.
