<p>[QUOTE=&quot;TT Antique, post: 298178, member: 2653&quot;]Hi all</p><p>I came across this&nbsp; lithography reproduction of an 18th century (1750) engraving depicting the pre -earthquake royal palace of Lisbon.The lithography reproduction itself seems old&nbsp; and&nbsp; is from Maia Portugal as it says &quot;oferta da litografia Maia&quot;. However I wanted to know the original 18th century engraver and his original work for comparison&nbsp; but&nbsp; could not find much info. Some blogs even say &quot;unknown&quot;&nbsp; regarding the identity of the artist. But on pin-interest I found a similar image with a certain German engraver by the name &quot;Georg balthasar probst&quot; as its engraver . However I could not find more about the artist and the original engraving. Can anyone shed light?</p><p>I have attached&nbsp; a photo of the lithograph repro I came across. However one can also see&nbsp; better the image in this wikimedia page&nbsp; but am not sure whether&nbsp; it depicts the original engraving with hand coloring or&nbsp; whether it is also another repro.</p><p><br /></p><p><a href="https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/d/df/PacoRibeira-18thCentury.jpg" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/d/df/PacoRibeira-18thCentury.jpg" rel="nofollow">https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/d/df/PacoRibeira-18thCentury.jpg</a></p><p><br /></p><p>thanks in advance!</p><p>TTA</p><p>[ATTACH=full]97246[/ATTACH][/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
