On the right amidst the vineyards the sketching artist talking with resting vineyard workers. Toned pen lithograph. Inscribed: (Recorded from nature and lithographed by J. A. Lasinsky 1828. / Frankfort a/M. C. Jügel.), title as above in German-French parallel text. 22.6 x 29.1 cm.

In  its  nervous  line  conduct  ahead  of  its  time ,

unmistakably, and promptly lithographed after own sketch, and thus “standing out highly advantageously from the leaves of much smaller size engraved after him by other artists … Lasinsky’s ‘sensibility, keenest power of observation, realistic study of nature, and talent for large wide landscapes’ have been praised” (Schulte). –  Rare  view .
