Karl-Joseph Brodtmann was a well-known Swiss artist and graphic artist. Numerous illustrations, lithographs and drawings are also important in today's art market. As a publicist and bookseller, Brodtmann was involved with media works and books beyond art. In 1817 Karl-Joseph Brodtmann went to Zurich. The largest city in Switzerland seemed ideal for him to open his own publishing bookstore and a lithographic printing works, where he produced lithographic prints. For this purpose, a print template is transferred to a lithographic stone with great attention to detail and laterally reversed. This reproduction can then be used to duplicate the original image. Brodtmann sold his company in Zurich to Johann Jakob Honegger ten years after opening. In Schaffhausen, the artist opened a lithographic institution with its own book and art shop. His publishing house even published the daily newspaper of the Canton of Schaffhausen in 1840. In the same year Brodtmann decided to sell this company as well. In the following years he worked mainly as an illustrator. His works could be found in youth books, art books and natural history works from various publishers.
Brodtmann's depictions of natural history received special attention. These were produced in the form of hand-painted sets for biologists and aristocrats. These groups of people were particularly enthusiastic about the detailed depictions of flora and fauna. At this time, various aristocrats were also popular patrons of the arts and sciences. Maximum scientific accuracy and high aesthetic standards were the key to Brodtmann's illustrations. Many of his natural history lithographs appeared around 1830 in a comprehensive work on reptiles and birds by Heinrich Rudolf Schinz. His own works completed the artist's extensive portfolio. One of his own works was published in 1816 and is entitled "Naturhistorische Bilder-Gallerie aus dem Thierreich". The successful artist, publisher and publicist died in 1862 at the age of 75 in Basel. His lithographs are still important today. They are traded in renowned international auction houses. But it does not always have to be the price-intensive original. Karl-Joseph Brodtmann's timeless illustrations are popular motifs in art prints. People who like books with detailed illustrations and depictions from botany and the animal kingdom can get enthusiastic about Brodtmann's artistic works. In a suitable frame, the pictures turn bare walls into an eye-catcher and skilfully embellish your own home.
