David Livingstone Original Lg Engraving/Print By Perine In 1880’s

Description: Original engraving by Perine of David Livingstone Engraving is over 150 years old. Livingstone was a Scottish physician, Congregationalist, pioneer Christian missionary[2] with the London Missionary Society, and an explorer in Africa. David was the husband of Mary Moffat Livingstone, from the prominent 18th-century missionary family, Moffat.[3] Livingstone came to have a mythic status that operated on a number of interconnected levels: Protestant missionary martyr, working-class "rags-to-riches" inspirational story, scientific investigator and explorer, imperial reformer, anti-slavery crusader, and advocate of British commercial and colonial expansion. As a result, Livingstone became one of the most popular British heroes of the late 19th-century Victorian era. Size:12 by 9 1/2 inches actual picture without writing 7 by 4 3/4 inches Condition: no foxing but toning on edges real good shape for age see photos but with an acid free mat and black frame it would look really nice If you google this engraving you will see many collections have this engraving. The library of Congress sells photos of this engraving. Made for Electic Magazine. Great piece of history. We got these while we were living in Philadelphia. Bought at an antique store and always thought we would open a store to sell prints but now retired so just selling. Have over 200 engravings. Have sat in a box for over 30 years. Lots of copies of this engraving but this is an original. Note the size of this engraving compared to others. This is much bigger.
