About the Work

This large-format chromolithograph depicts one of the most elegant locomotives in early railway history: the famous Crampton type with its striking oversized driving wheel, built by J. F. Cail in Paris in 1846. Published in 1964 by the renowned Paris art publisher Braun & Co., after an original held at the Musée National de Compiègne, the sheet combines technical precision with the flattering coloration of chromolithography. A genuine eye-catcher for railway enthusiasts and lovers of industrial nostalgia.

Provenance

The publisher's label on the back fully documents the origin: 'Locomotive à Vapeur 1846, Type Crampton (Cail), Chromo lithographie 50,6 x 79,6 cm, Musée National de Compiègne, Les éditions Braun & Co. Paris 1964'. The work is thus clearly documented as a high-quality publisher's reproduction by the respected Paris house Braun & Co. after a museum original: ideal for collectors of railway prints who value a traceable origin.
