UNIFORMENKUNDE CATALOG 1


If you are a military historian with an interest in the history and evolution of the military uniform you should know about the UNIFORMENKUNDE. Richard Knötel was the most famous and prominent of all the German military artists from the late 1800's until his death His hundreds if not thousands of illustrations have documented the uniforms of nearly every country in the world during and before his lifetime. His most mounumental work is the UNIFORMENKUNDE which was available by subscription starting in 1890 until shortly after WWI. Each year he published 50 plates or more until a total of 1072 prints were produced. The plates were in no certain order and covered subjects that suited his fancy at the time. 90 different countries, principalities, dukedoms, and republics are represented from the 1600's until the early 20th Century. Many of the uniforms documented in this work are to be seen no where else. The printing techniques of the time left a lot to be desired. Each print was done as a work of line art then hand colored by journeymen artists who had a master print to work by. Oftentimes details like belts, buttons, and lace were obscured by overpainting. Today original Knötel prints sell for more than $30 to $50 each depending on the rarity and popularity of the subject. Because the originals were done before archival papers and inks were the standard those that can be found have usually been affected by the ravages of time and elements and are usually yellowed and spotted. (In the late 1960's and again in the mid 1980's a reprint was done on a subscription basis in Germany. These prints were smaller than the originals and were done using the standard offset printing techniques of the time, the papers was darker than the original and the details were not well defined or corrected.)	Uniformology is proud to offer for the first time the complete 1072 print collection. Our prints are not only as good as those originally published - they are better. Our reproductions come from photographs of the original plates from the first edition issue. They are carefully color corrected to allow for the fading and changes in papers and paints that have occured over time. Then under high magnification the uniform details are carefully and painstakingly replaced and restored using the most modern techniques available. Our paper and inks are both archival and acid free and will have a useful life far longer than that of the originals. Prices: Each 9 X 12 inch Print: $6.50 US. ppd Add to Cart View Cart

The original prints were issued in no particular order or arrangement. We have taken the liberty of listing the collection by countries represented. Please use our numbers 1-1072 when ordering.
