Lithographic Sketches: It is the End of the World! (frontispiece), 1824
Lithographic Sketches: It is the End of the World! (frontispiece), 1824. The museums extensive collection of early lithography documents the development of the technique in Europe. Invented by a German, Alois Senefelder (1771-1834), in 1798 for commercial purposes, lithography was quickly adopted by artists. Lithography did not begin in France until 1816, however, when two workshops were established in Paris. By 1824 so many lithographs were being produced that a deluge of lithographic albums could end the world

EDITORS COMMENTS
The print captures the frontispiece of "Lithographic Sketches: It is the End of the World!" created in 1824. This artwork belongs to The Cleveland Museum of Art's extensive collection, which showcases the evolution of lithography in Europe. Lithography was initially invented by Alois Senefelder, a German, in 1798 for commercial purposes. However, it quickly gained popularity among artists and made its way to France in 1816 when two workshops were established in Paris. By 1824, lithographs were being produced at an astonishing rate, leading to a flood of lithographic albums that seemed capable of ending the world! This humorous concept reflects both the proliferation and impact this new printing technique had on artistic production during that time. The artist behind this particular frontispiece is Nicolas Toussaint Charlet, a renowned French lithographer from the early 19th century. His skillful execution and attention to detail are evident in this piece. This photograph not only preserves Charlet's work but also highlights how lithography revolutionized printmaking techniques and became an integral part of European art history. Its inclusion within The Cleveland Museum of Art's collection demonstrates their commitment to preserving significant cultural artifacts for future generations to appreciate and study.
