Dromedarus, / Arabisch post 1829 - 1880

"Dromedarus, / Arabisch post" is a hand-colored lithograph depicting a camel rider in the desert, likely a scene of a postal service in the Middle East. The artwork, which is part of a series of illustrations, was created by the firm Joseph Scholz between 1829 and 1880, and today it is held in the collection of the Rijksmuseum in Amsterdam. The print captures a specific moment in time and provides insight into the transportation methods and postal system of the 19th century.
