Beautiful color lithograph from Fritz von Dardels famous work "Svenska och Norska Arméerna samt flottorna i deras nuvarande uniformering" (The Contemporary Uniforms of the Swedish and Norwegian Armies and Navies). The work contains 36 plates alltogether, which were printed in Paris by the famous firm Lemercier. This explains the high quality of the color printing. Some details are hand colored.The text to the work was executed under the guidance of prince Oskar Fredrik, but never finished. Scarce.
