This palatial handmade-to-order 11.8" x 11.8" square lamp shade features the "Inbooring der Lieukhieu-Eilander” character from a hand-colored Karl Joseph Brodtmann stone lithograph from H.R. Schinz's 1840 Naturgeschichte und Abbidungen des Menschen. Brodtmann was part of the post-Linnaean Age of Enlightenment, hand-colouring sets for biologists and the aristocracy.
