Original Late 18th or Early 19th Century Lithograph of the Swiss Theologian and Publisher Johannes Schulthess.

Schulthess founded a publishing house in Zurich in 1791 in Schlusselgasse to publish school books and theological works. The publishing house still exists today and is known for legal publications and texts.

Condition: The sheet is lightly wrinkled and faintly spotted throughout – but still has a good striking contrast and will look wonderful framed.
