<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Bronwen, post: 372860, member: 5833&quot;]It appears that this was originally an engraving, a black &amp; white illustration for an 1869 book, <a href="https://www.google.com/search?q=schillergalerie+1869&amp;client=firefox-b-1&amp;tbm=isch&amp;tbo=u&amp;source=univ&amp;sa=X&amp;ved=0ahUKEwjVrtf0ntTbAhWRyIMKHTxXCmoQsAQIKg&amp;biw=1600&amp;bih=763" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="https://www.google.com/search?q=schillergalerie+1869&amp;client=firefox-b-1&amp;tbm=isch&amp;tbo=u&amp;source=univ&amp;sa=X&amp;ved=0ahUKEwjVrtf0ntTbAhWRyIMKHTxXCmoQsAQIKg&amp;biw=1600&amp;bih=763" rel="nofollow">Schiller-Galerie</a>, which showed characters from Schiller&#039;s works.&nbsp; That puts a floor under the date.</p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p>Because to put in all that design work &amp; only make one would make it prohibitively expensive for all but the wealthiest; more money to be made from more customers at a lower price.&nbsp; (It still wasn&#039;t cheap.)&nbsp; And if you were going to make something unique, you wouldn&#039;t use artwork copied from another source.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
