ABOUT PRODUCTID 17567
The lithograph 'Room with Toys', created in Berlin in 1881, is a historical example of German architectural printmaking, typical of publications for architects at the end of the 19th century. Printed in monochrome on paper, the work depicts the capital of an iron column from the Eberswalde mental hospital. The composition features meticulous linework and subtle chiaroscuro, evoking the precision and clarity of late 19th-century draftsmanship. Each sheet is marked with the issue number, illustrator's name, and publication date. The print is professionally presented: a wide, neutral passe-partout and a slim black aluminium frame under glass complement the classic character and allow the composition to be fully appreciated. Overall framed dimensions are 38.5 × 48.5 cm. The condition is very good, with no visible damage or signs of restoration.This work brings with it the quiet focus of architectural sketches, reviving the sensitivity to detail and technical invention characteristic of its era. Its monochromatic tonality creates a meditative link to the world of 19th-century designers—where every motif was governed by logic, and industrial aesthetics formed their own visual language. The signed sheet conveys a restrained, almost austere atmosphere; it recalls the learned stillness of old architectural studios, letting viewers experience the thoughtful elegance and passage of historical form.Such a graphic piece could suit an interior inspired by historicism, eclecticism, or collector's modernism, pairing well with late 19th or early 20th-century furniture and other monochrome prints, maps, or technical drawings. It would work well hung above a desk or sideboard against
