Incography (modern copy) has already occupied an important place in the vast pantheon of contemporary printmaking for more than a decade, still remaining an innovative and attractive investment. In addition to its investment, interior and aesthetic qualities, the collector's dimension of inkography is a new opening in the design space and the art market.
So why printmaking? Inkography makes it possible to purchase original signed prints by the most outstanding Polish artists at attractive prices. Recently, we have seen an increase in interest in prints at auctions and in galleries. Inkography is becoming an increasingly frequent choice of investors and designers.
Inkography has a format: 405 x 570 mm
Original: The graphic comes from the incunabulum "Liber chronicarum" published in 1493, containing the oldest representations of three Polish cities: Krakow, Wroclaw and Nysa. "Liber chronicarum" was published in the Nuremberg publishing house of Anton Koberger with woodcut illustrations from the workshop of Michal Wolgemut and text written by Hartmann Schedel (1440-1514). The words "Liber chronicarum" are a popular and in use abbreviation for the somewhat lengthy full title: "Liber chronicarum cum figuris ymaginibus ab inicio mundi". In Poland, in fairly common use are also the terms: "Chronicle of the World," "Schedel's Chronicle" or "Nuremberg Chronicle."
