Nacido en Biebrich-Mosbach, Nassau, en 1849, Schlitt es conocido por sus humorísticas ilustraciones y diseños con enanos, sagas y cuentos de hadas. Schlitt recibió clases inicialmente del artista de Wiesbaden, Kaspar Kögler, y posteriormente estudió en la Academia de Bellas Artes de Múnich con Wilhelm Lindenschmit a partir de 1875 (fecha de este dibujo). Schlitt trabajó con éxito como ilustrador para el periódico Illustrated Newspaper y las revistas Overland and Sea, Daheim y Schalk; su obra se hizo conocida gracias a estas revistas. También fue uno de los artistas principales de la firma de cerámica Villeroy \u0026amp; Boch, diseñando, en particular, vasijas para beber, que hoy en día son muy coleccionables. Sus apreciados frescos pintados también adornan las paredes del Rathskeller (ayuntamiento) de Múnich y Wiesbaden. En este estudio, Schlitt ha dibujado varios detalles de la indumentaria medieval alemana, incluyendo tocados y joyas. El marcado contorno de algunas ilustraciones da la apariencia de vidrieras medievales, y de hecho, una lleva la inscripción «Nach eine Glascheibe» («Tras un panel de vidrio»). Cada ilustración está inscrita en alemán, incluyendo: «Goldkappe mit seinen Schleier darmuster c. 1490» (gorro dorado con sus diseños de velo); 'Goldhaube mit Schleien—eine Ohrmuschel mit Perlen besetzt circa 1490' (capucha dorada con presillas—una orejera con perlas circa 1490) y 'Edelmann c.1480 mit Goldkette' (noble c.1480 con collar de oro). El dibujo se presenta en una montura de ventana de color crema, asegurada en las esquinas superiores con cinta con bisagra.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Somerset \u0026 Wood","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51987909476681,"sku":"JG-026","price":148.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0930\/4306\/5161\/files\/jg-026.jpg?v=1743087943"},{"product_id":"his-majesty-s-theatre-programme-for-cairo-by-oscar-asche-percy-fletcher-1921-jm-303","title":"Programa del Teatro de Su Majestad para 'El Cairo' de Oscar Asche \/ Percy Fletcher 1921","description":"\u003cp\u003e Un folleto original de 1921, Programa del Teatro de Su Majestad en El Cairo.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e Este programa original se relaciona con la producción de 1921 en el His Majesty's Theatre (ahora Her Majesty's Theatre) en Londres, protagonizada por los principales actores de la época, Lily Brayton y Oscar Asche.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eCairo se estrenó en Nueva York en 1920 bajo el título de La Meca.
