About this sheet

This antique military print, titled 'Siebente Vorstellung', is part of a series published by the 'Militarischen Gesellschaft in Zurich' in the 18th century. The society focused on depicting infantry warfare and infantry training. In this specific print, the details of infantry tactics and training are intricately illustrated. The etching work for this series was carried out by various artists, including J. G. Sauter, J. R. Holzhalb, J. H. Meyer, J. B. Bullinger, H. Brupbacher, and others. It offers a historical glimpse into the military practices and training methods of the time.

Antique prints have long been appreciated for both their aesthetic and investment value. They were the product of engraved, etched or lithographed plates. These plates were handmade out of wood or metal, which required an incredible level of skill, patience and craftsmanship. Whether you have a house with Victorian furniture or more contemporary decor an old engraving can enhance your living space. We offer a wide range of authentic antique prints for any budget.
