Step back in time to the mid 18th century, where elegance and beauty abound. A lady gracefully strolls through a garden, her small child holding onto her hand tightly. The vibrant colors of the Laurel Tree catch your eye, as you admire its hand-colored etching from 1731-1743. In another scene, witness the intense moment of The Death of Bhishma. Mortally wounded by Arjuna's numerous arrows, Bhishma's fate hangs in the balance. Meanwhile, across the waters in Dublin, Ireland stands Guinness Boat, Custom House and Liberty Hall - iconic landmarks that have witnessed centuries of history. Nature takes center stage with a stunning Magnolia depicted on a hand-colored engraved plate from 1750-1773. Its delicate petals seem to come alive before your eyes. Equally captivating is Lilium corona Imperialis (Crown imperial lily), an engraved and mezzotint plate dating back to 1737-1745. Artistic masterpieces also grace this era; Francois Boucher's The Raised Skirt showcases his talent for capturing sensual beauty while Pierre Charles Tremolieres' Ulysses Lands on the Isle of Calypso transports you into Greek mythology. Traveling further north brings us to Limerick, captured beautifully in watercolor plans circa 1750. This picturesque city invites exploration and discovery around every corner. Delve into Indian folklore with The Young Krishna Kills the Demon Vatsasura who came disguised as a calf - an intricate watercolor and ink creation on orange paper from c. 1730-1740 that tells tales of bravery and triumph over evil. The Infant Hercules gazes at you with determination in his eyes as he flexes his tiny muscles painted meticulously on canvas - a symbol of strength even at such a young age. Lastly, immerse yourself in Amsterdam's charm through Vue of Kleveniers Canal captured between 1740-1770.
