Robert - Leendert Springer (I)","description":"\u003cp\u003eA nineteenth-century Dutch lithograph depicting a gentleman in formal attire with a horse-drawn carriage, produced by Leendert Springer (I) in 1844.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis lithograph depicts a gentleman named J. Robert, captured in a formal standing pose. The subject wears a top hat, a dark frock coat, and knee-length breeches, reflecting the fashion of the mid-nineteenth century. He holds a small book or document in his left hand and another in his right, suggesting a scholarly or professional identity. Behind him, a horse-drawn carriage is positioned on a cobblestone street, providing context to the scene and adding depth to the composition.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eLeendert Springer (I) was a Dutch artist and lithographer active during the mid-nineteenth century. His work often documented individuals of his time with precision and technical clarity. The print exhibits the characteristic tonal range of the lithographic process, utilising subtle gradations of grey to define the textures of the clothing and the carriage. The inclusion of the publisher's details, Schrouder en van Baak in Leyden, at the base of the print indicates its commercial production for a contemporary audience.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe composition is balanced, with the figure positioned slightly to the left of the centre, allowing the carriage to occupy the right side of the frame. The background remains relatively sparse, focusing the viewer's attention on the subject. The attention to detail in the clothing and the carriage wheels demonstrates the technical skill required for lithography during this period. This piece offers a glimpse into the social history of the Netherlands in the 1840s, documenting the attire and transport of the era. The print is a clean example of nineteenth-century portraiture, maintaining a formal and objective tone throughout the depiction of the subject.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cdiv style=\"margin-top:2rem;padding-top:1.5rem;border-top:1px solid #e5e5e5;\"\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"font-size:0.85rem;color:#888;font-weight:600;margin:0 0 0.75rem;text-transform:uppercase;letter-spacing:0.05em;\"\u003eYou might also like\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cdiv style=\"display:flex;flex-wrap:wrap;gap:0.5rem;\"\u003e\n\u003ca href=\"\/products\/poisson-et-algues-papier-peint-pigeon-et-pavots-bordure-de-vitrail-maurice-pillard-verneuil\" style=\"display:inline-block;background:#f8f9fa;border:1px solid #e5e5e5;border-radius:20px;padding:0.35rem 0.85rem;font-size:0.8rem;color:#2a555a;font-weight:500;text-decoration:none !important;background-image:none !important;\"\u003ePoisson et Algues, Papier Peint \/ Pigeon et Pavots, Bordure de Vitrail - Maurice Pillard Verneuil — Maurice Pillard Verneuil\u003c\/a\u003e\n\u003ca href=\"\/products\/foundations-building-at-night-joseph-pennell\" style=\"display:inline-block;background:#f8f9fa;border:1px solid #e5e5e5;border-radius:20px;padding:0.35rem 0.85rem;font-size:0.8rem;color:#2a555a;font-weight:500;text-decoration:none !important;background-image:none !important;\"\u003eFoundations, Building at Night - Joseph Pennell — Joseph Pennell\u003c\/a\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Leendert Springer (I)","offers":[{"title":"Fine Art Poster \/ A4 (21x29.7 cm) \/ -","offer_id":59095451992399,"sku":null,"price":29.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Poster \/ A3 (29.7 x 42  cm) \/ -","offer_id":59095459299663,"sku":null,"price":39.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Poster \/ A2 (42 x 59.4  cm) \/ -","offer_id":59095459332431,"sku":null,"price":49.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ A4 (21x29.7 cm) \/ Black frame","offer_id":59095459365199,"sku":null,"price":89.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ A4 (21x29.7 cm) \/ Wood frame","offer_id":59095459397967,"sku":null,"price":89.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ A4 (21x29.7 cm) \/ Dark wood frame","offer_id":59095459430735,"sku":null,"price":89.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ A3 (29.7 x 42  cm) \/ Black frame","offer_id":59095459463503,"sku":null,"price":119.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ A3 (29.7 x 42  cm) \/ Wood frame","offer_id":59095459496271,"sku":null,"price":119.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ A3 (29.7 x 42  cm) \/ Dark wood frame","offer_id":59095459529039,"sku":null,"price":119.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ A2 (42 x 59.4  cm) \/ Black frame","offer_id":59095459561807,"sku":null,"price":185.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ A2 (42 x 59.4  cm) \/ Wood frame","offer_id":59095459594575,"sku":null,"price":185.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ A2 (42 x 59.4  cm) \/ Dark wood frame","offer_id":59095459627343,"sku":null,"price":185.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0833\/9292\/1935\/files\/Portrait-of-J_Poster_CompositorV1_1791803969991.jpg?v=1791804460","url":"https:\/\/www.solisprints.com\/products\/portrait-of-j-robert-leendert-springer-i","provider":"Solis Prints","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
