Views of American cities
Augustus Kollner, 1848-1851
KOLLNER, Augustus (1813-1906). [Views of American Cities. New York & Paris: Goupil, Vilbert & Co., 1848-1851.]

Rare very extensive collection of Augustus Kollner's famed city views. Includes Washington D.C., Baltimore, Philadelphia, New York City, Albany, Troy, Saratoga, Quebec, Montreal, and views of the Canadian landscape and of Niagara Falls. Kollner was a German-American artist in the Romantic style, "Popularly known for his illustrations for many volumes published by the American Sunday School Union, Kollner also undertook a major print series, Views of American Cities, published un New York and Paris by Goupil, Vibert and Company between 1848 and 1851" (Deák 494). Kollner's views of identifiable areas and buildings, as here, are called by Wainwright as among his works of lasting value. There were 54 titles in the American cities series, but they were issued only individually and extensive sets are rare. Deák 560; Wainwright, "Augustus Kollner, Artist," in the Pennsylvania Magazine of History and Biography, July 1960.

32 hand-colored lithographic prints after drawings by Köllner, by Deroy and printed by Cartier, some with publisher's blindstamp, 318 x 445mm (typical size, sizes vary). (About 5 plates with mild spotting, some mat-shadow and scattered minor marginal defects, faint stain in Mount Vernon print, Horseshoe Fall print with copyright line trimmed, Montmorency River view with repaired tear, two of the New York plates with a little residue on the versos). Overall in excellent condition, individually matted; housed in two modern quarter morocco solander boxes.Kollner, Augustus
