This 1869 Chromolithograph Print of A Patriarchal Family is from Thomas Wright's Womankind in Western Europe (from the earliest times to the seventeenth century), published by Groombridge and Sons, London.  The print, measuring about 6.25" high by 8.25" wide, shows a simple line drawing of four women and eleven children seated on a decorative vermilion banquette above a yellow floor.  They are dressed in robes in pastel colors with head coverings for the women and blue hair for the children.  All of the women and two of the children have expressive hand gestures, suggesting that they are engaged in a lively conversation.  The illustration is surrounded by a pale blue with gold accent border.  "A Patriarchal Family" is written in thin black block letters on a cream-colored outer border.  This 1869 Chromolithograph Print of A Patriarchal Family is in better than good condition.  There is some slight yellowing in the upper left hand corner of the illustration and some darkening along the print edges.
