Milestone Monday

On this day, November 6, 1771, Alois Senefelder (1771-1834) inventor of lithography was born. The son of an actor and tasked with supporting his mother and siblings after his father’s death, Senefelder began his own acting career at age twenty and extended his occupational talents into playwriting. Unable to afford to publish a new play he’d written, Senefelder experimented with what he called “stone printing” in the 1790s, etching acid resistant ink onto limestone and subsequently inventing the first planographic process in printing. Senefelder perfected the chemical process and designed a special printing press with the help of the André family and within five years lithography was being used as a cheap form of creating reproductions by publishers and in mapmaking by land surveying offices throughout Europe.  

By the early 1800’s Senefelder and his contemporaries were thinking of ways to introduce color to lithography. Senefelder outlined his ideas on chromolithography in his 1818 book A Complete Course of Lithography, but it was Godefroy Engelmann of France who was awarded the patent for it in 1837.  

In celebration of Senefelder’s birthday and all that he contributed to the printing world; we’re looking at the American Encyclopedia of Printing published in 1871 by Menamin & Ringwalt of Philadelphia. Included within the section on lithography is a storied portrait of Senefelder surrounded by his tools and accomplishments. The lithographic portrait was printed by Duval & Hunter, lithographers and chromo publishers out of Philadelphia.

It wasn’t long before artists saw the appeal of lithographs and began taking advantage of the new printing technique. Lithography was far more approachable than other printing methods of the time like engraving, because artists could draw directly on the stone with familiar tools, such as pens and crayons. They did not need to master a new medium or skill to create highly accurate prints with deep textural qualities.

Among the artists of the 1800’s diving into lithography, Honoré-Victorin Daumier (1808-1879) excelled in the medium. Daumier was a prolific French artist who created more than 4,000 lithographs in addition to his many sculptures, paintings, drawings, and wood engravings. His specialty was satirical social caricatures of Parisian life where he effortlessly blended artistry, social commentary, and humor as showcased in the following lithographs held within our collection. The prints were published in 1840 by La maison Aubert of Paris.

#WordyWednesday

Lithography: An illustration process invented in 1798 by Alois Senefelder that is neither intaglio nor relief. Lithography involves writing on a flat surface with a grease-crayon and then applying an acid solution to slightly etch the non-drawn surfaces. The entire surface is then covered in water, which does not lie on the greasy marks (as water and grease repel one another). A greasy printing ink is then applied, which only settles on the greasy drawing, and can then be printed. Lithography can be done using special limestones or using metal plates. It allows color printing in a way that previous illustration techniques did not and is still practiced by artists today.

reconstruction of Archaeopteryx

Archaeopteryx fossil - Berlin specimen

Paleontologists have long thought that Archaeopteryx ('ancient feather' or 'ancient wing') fossils placed the dinosaur at the base of the bird evolutionary tree. Recent evidence suggests the beast may be best described as a birdlike dinosaur rather than an early bird, though it probably could fly after a fashion. Archaeopteryx is about 150 million years of age, while the ancestor of all living birds lived sometime in the Late Cretaceous — 50 to 65 million years ago.

In 1861, the first Archaeopteryx skeleton, which was missing most of its head and neck, was unearthed near Langenaltheim, Germany. However, the most complete skeleton, the Berlin Specimen, was discovered in 1874 or 1875 near Eichstatt, Germany by farmer Jakob Niemeyer, who sold it in 1876 to innkeeper Johann Dörr. Through various transactions, the fossil, which is the first found to have an intact head, eventually wound up being in the Humboldt Museum fur Naturkunde, where it still resides. To date there have been 11 other Archaeopteryx fossils found, the latest discovered in 2010 (described in 2014). All of the fossils come from the limestone deposits near Solnhofen. Recent tests performed on the specimens indicate that the primary coloring of the feathers of Archaeopteryx were black, possibly with lighter colored tips.

Jurassic deposits of Solnhofen limestone in southern Germany are marked by rare but exceptionally well preserved fossils of many species. It was first quarried nearly 2,000 years ago by the Romans who used the stone for paving roads and building walls. In later Roman times the mosaic floor of the church of Hagia Sofia in Istanbul was made of this limestone. In the Middle Ages, the stone was also used as floor and roofing material, and artisans used the material in the making of bas-relief sculptures and headstones. A decisive turning point in the history of the stone was the determination in 1673 by Alois Senefelder that the dense, fine-grained material was ideally-suited for use in the newly discovered printing process of lithography, a use that caused quarrying to increase dramatically.

Henryk Płóciennik  -   Fishing IV, (zincography, 1967).

Zincography was a planographic printing process that used zinc plates. Alois Senefelder first mentioned zinc's lithographic use as a substitute for Bavarian limestone in his 1801 English patent specifications. In 1834, Federico Lacelli patented a zincographic printing process, producing large maps called géoramas.

Labarte’s Histoire des Arts Industriels, part deux!

Last month we posted images from the first album of plates of Histoire des arts industriels au Moyen Âge et à l'époque de la Renaissance, published in four volumes between 1864-1866 by A. Morel et Cie. of Paris. In that post, we discussed the creator, Jules Labarte, and a bit of the publishing history. This post will focus on Imprimerie Lithographique de Lemercier, the firm responsible for image reproduction in Labarte’s Histoire. 

Founded by Rose-Joseph Lemercier in 1837, Lemercier was the largest lithography firm in Paris between 1850 and 1870 and was instrumental in industrializing the lithography business in France and integrating new photolithographic processes into his repertoire. The son and grandson of basketmakers, Lemercier was apprenticed out to follow in the family business, but he quickly became enchanted with printing, studying first under Joséphine-Clémence Formentin before apprenticing for Édouard Knecht, nephew and successor of Aloys Senefelder, the inventor of lithography. 

Lemercier attempted his own innovations, including an effort to develop his own photolithographic process in the early 1850s. Ultimately, he purchased the patent for the process developed by Alphonse Poitevin. The image below is an example of that process:

Sitt porslinsöga hade farfar Ebbe fått efter en olycka på sin motorcykel av märket Birmingham Small Arms Company. Det har berättats hur det där ögat en gång poppat ut mitt under en julklappsutdelning och att det till barnens förfäran ramlat rakt ner i tomtesäcken. 

Bland farfar Ebbes kvarlåtenskap fanns ett plåtskrin med kryptiska prylar och verktyg. På en kanariegul ask med elegant etikett kunde man läsa ”Litoghraphic Crayon No. 1 W. Korn 120 Centre Street New York”. Engelskan begrep jag mig inte på, men innehållet var desto enklare, för kritor vet ju varenda kotte vad de är till för: att teckna skörk med kåbåjshatt å revålver. Men kritorna var special-klibbiga, halkade runt på pappret som en berusad isdansös och lämnade sliriga spår efter sig svartare än natten. Det här är ju nästan som att rita med lakritsstänger tänkte jag... och gav upp... 

Med den industriella revolutionen exploderade tillgången på konsumtionsvaror. Dagligvara, vardagsvara, förbrukningsartikel och kapitalvara - allt var välkommet och man ville gärna se sina prylar i världsvan paketering och färgglad reklam. Alois Senefelders uppfinning - den litografiska tryckmetoden - passade som hand i handske i du nya sköna värld. Nu kunde man massproducera både text och bild för en spottstyver. 

Ivar Krüger förstod genast refrängen och med säkerhetständstickor i exotiska paket erövrade han halva universum och kunde bygga sitt Xanadu. 

Ebbe å sin sida parkerade motorcykeln utanför Göteborgs Slöjdförening. Med avklarad examen surfade han med i en våg av svenska litografer som kom att etablera sig under svensk mellankrigstid. 

Bland farfar Ebbes alster är cigarettmärket Blue Master något av en favorit. På paketet syns en vit häst i månljus och midnattsblå himmel. Cigaretterna tillverkades av norska Tiedemanns Tobaksfabrik. De säljs än idag men istället för visuell poesi paketerar man numera rökverken med svartvita varningstexter.  

Från botten av nittiotalets finanskris fiskade mamma upp en liten annons i Göteborgs-Posten.

-Ska du inte söka Dômen Konstskola, Björn?

Jag sökte och kom in. På avdelningen för grafik. 

-Vad är grafik, mamma?

Dômen hade svaret men ingen litografi. Det är först nu på Litografiska museet som jag får slipa kalksten och droppa salpetersyra i gummi arabicum. Och för den som inte redan räknat ut det: de där klibbiga kritorna var inte avsedda för barnteckning på papper. Det korrekta underlaget är miljonårig kalksten från stenbrott i södra Bayern. Ordet Litografi är för övrigt en sammansättning av grekiskans lithos - sten och graphein - skriva.

Det tar en stund för salpetersyran att etsa sig ner i stenen och då blir det paus i arbetet. Jag passade på att titta runt bland museets föremål och började bläddra i en tjock gammal lunta. Vem hittar jag där i ett hav av svartvita gruppfoton om inte farfar Ebbe i grå kostym. På den tiden klädde sig tydligen hela Sveriges litograf-kår som Humphrey Bogart. Tänk att farfar Ebbe funnits där hela den här tiden bara för att bli återupptäckt på ett museum av sitt barnbarn hundra år senare.

Med samtiden djupt nedsänkt i en fondue av populärkultur och konsumtion är det kanske inte så konstigt att varumärken blir ett återkommande tema i ens konstnärsskap. Men i kulisserna anar jag även impulser från farfar Ebbe. Att få snurra hjul och valsar i de mäktiga litografi-pressarna känns lite som att låta cirklar mötas över tid och rum. Det är inte bara massproducerade produkter som litografin lyfte fram på ett nytt sätt. Det gick även att skapa en helt ny slags konst. Tänk Ebbe, på sätt och vis är du ju en föregångare till Andy Warhol.
