Description: Frederick William Louis King of Prussia original engraving by John Sartain. Sartain ( 1808-1897) English born American artist pioneered mezzotint engraving in the US. One of the best engravers ever. Unframed not matted. From the Electic magazine this engraving is over 150 years old. Condition: no foxing really in great shape. Would look wonderful in a mat and black frame. Size: 12 by 9 1/2 and actual picture of Frederick is 7 1/4 by 5 5/8 If you google John Sartain you will see this exact engraving is in many collections. The library of congress sells copies of this exact engraving. Buy this original engraving. Great piece of history. We got these while we were living in Philadelphia. Bought at an antique store and always thought we would open a store to sell prints but now retired so just selling. Have over 200 engravings. Have sat in a box for over 30 years.
