Antique Print — "Tandem-Fahren" | After A. Ackermark | Chromolithograph | c.1895

An original chromolithograph after a painting by German artist A. Ackermark, published in a German magazine around 1895. The print depicts an elegant tandem carriage scene — a well-dressed couple riding through a tree-lined promenade, drawn by two horses hitched in tandem formation. The scene captures the leisure culture of late 19th-century European society, with fashionably dressed pedestrians filling the background.

Tandem driving — where horses are harnessed single-file rather than side by side — was considered a skilled and stylish pursuit among the upper classes of the era. Ackermark was known for capturing this world with warmth and fine detail.
Traditional ornate gold frame with an embossed floral/daisy pattern along the border. Paired with a wide cream/ivory mat that gives the print room to breathe. Classic and period-appropriate for the late 19th-century subject matter.
