This lithograph, "Visitekaartje van de Lithografische Drukkerij van J. Jaeger te Groningen" by Carl Friedrich Julius de Jaeger (1815-1867), is a business card for J. Jaeger’s lithographic printing shop in Groningen. Dating from 1843-1856, it is a fine example of a 19th-century business card. The design features a central circle with Jaeger’s name and surrounded by six smaller vignettes depicting various types of printing, showing the breadth of his services. This small piece of graphic art provides insight into 19th-century lithographic printing and commercial practices in the Netherlands.
