Support; a gorgeous picture that is telling me a lot about the subject, and a great restoration. How was this picture produced? Is it a pencil drawing? I'm assuming this is restoration of the original, rather than just a print? J Milburn (talk) 12:52, 27 October 2009 (UTC)[reply]
- The bibliographic notes don't state, but it looks for all the world like lithography. Only question in my mind is whether it was chromolithography or hand painted lithography. A print, though. To get the original would be extraordinary (once in a rare while we get that lucky). Durova³⁴⁵ 15:12, 27 October 2009 (UTC)[reply]
