The African Prince, 1841 Black-and-white lithograph, titled "The African Prince," captures a poignant and dramatic scene featuring two figures set against a dark, tumultuous sky. The central subject is a young Black man with a concerned expression, his hands clasped as if in plea or prayer, while a young woman gazes up at him with an equally earnest and supportive look. The composition is rich in texture and emotional depth, characteristic of the Romantic era's interest in narrative and character study. The artwork was painted by H. Meyer, engraved by W. Holl, and published on January 1, 1841. Unmounted. Unframed. Sheet: 10.5 x 8.5 inches; image: 5 x 4 inches $100-150
