Historical context

Franz Niklaus König produced this lithograph in 1822. The piece is held by Wikimedia Commons (institutional source) and is in the public domain under Public Domain; we sourced the file from the institution’s open-access program and prepared it for archival printing.

On the category. Hand grinders, ibriks, percolators, brewing devices, and roasters in painting and engraving. The objects in these pieces are still recognizable to a working barista; the way they were rendered is the document.

The master file is 3490 × 4936 pixels. At 300 DPI it prints clean at approximately 16 inches on the long edge before any visible loss; below that scale all three included print sizes hold cleanly.
