VARIOUS PROPERTIES
The following three lots include prints after original drawings executed using a technique devised by Cornelis Ploos van Amstel (1726-1798), known as 'Prenttekening' or 'actypa'. Ploos was heavily occupied with the production of these prints for over twenty years since the technique was perfected and first put into production in 1765. When the project was concluded in 1787 he had produced, together with his collaborators, a series comprising 46 prints of which, according to Ploos's own records, 350 impressions were made of each. The complete series is illustrated and discribed in Th. Laurentius, J.W. Niemeijer and G. Ploos van Amstel, Cornelis Ploos van Amstel-Kunstverzamelaar en prentuitgever, 1980, and is referred to in this catalogue by numbers preceeded by the letters 'L.N.P.'. These numbers are also used for prints made by Ploos' cooperators Bernard Schreuder and Cornelis Brouwer.
