Chromolithographs by R. Hill
The latter part of the 19th century and the early part of
the 20th century were the golden era of chromolithography. Used
extensively in tobacco, beer and other advertising it provided
the artist with a sparkling palette and the ability to render
detail and mood. These chromolithographs were done by R. Hill
in 1904 and are similar in style and subject matter to those of
Prang. They are all in period frames and would look wonderful
individually or as a grouping.
