189026659Épinal: Pellerin 1890. Fine. Pellerin Épinal s. d. circa 1880-1900 49 x 39 cm Image d'Épinal color lithograph large format printed on heavy paper. Very light marginal foxing otherwise handsome condition colors very well preserved. These sheets are cardboard constructions or models on which a pattern was printed. This pattern must be cut out then assembled to construct various objects or life scenes. The Épinal imagery published several series of cut-out models including the ""Grandes Constructions"" in 39 x 49 cm format the ""Moyennes Constructions"" and the ""Petites Constructions"". From 1880 to 1908 constructions were published featuring architecture costumes ships and various vehicles. During this same period paper theaters or ""théâtre chez soi"" also enjoyed great success. This toy model developed and endured until the Second World War. Once sold by peddlers the images d'Épinal owe their name to Jean-Charles Pellerin who was the first printer to publish this type of image in series and who lived in the town of Épinal Vosges. The subjects are very varied but generally revolve around religion history French Revolution battles military uniforms or drawn from successful novels. Épinal imagery takes its origins from imagery a popular art born in the 15th century intended primarily for the illiterate public of the countryside. Originally the image is engraved on a wooden block and printing is done using a hand press. It is then colored using stencils. In the 19th century lead castings were made from the engraved wood blocks: stereotypes which allowed production to be increased. In 1820 lithography was adopted which induced a radical change in style with finer drawings. In 1900 coloring was still done by stencil thanks to a machine that could color 300 images per hour the Aquatype. Pellerin unknown
