Read this to learn more about Sherman Foote Denton.
Sherman Denton was born in Wellesley, Massachusetts which today is complete with Denton Street in honor of his work and home from 1856 through 1937.
Sherman’s father was a naturalist and geologist. He had taken Sherman at age 15 and in the 1880’s to Australia, New Zealand and New Guinea, where he collected natural history specimens. During this time he managed to gather the largest collection of freshwater pearls in the United States.
Upon returning to America as a young man Sherman Denton landed a position working for the “Forest, Fish and Game Commission of the State of New York” and stayed from 1895-1909. Denton provided the incredible lifelike water-colored illustrations for over 100 chromolithograph’s, which is exactly what you are looking at for sale here. One of the original chromolithographs published more than 100 years ago.
During this time he developed & patented a method for mounting fish without them losing their natural colors. Denton set the standard for natural history fish illustrations.
Denton became the leading artist of fish models for collectors and museums such as the Smithsonian Institute, the Field Museum of Natural History in Chicago, and the Louis Agassi’s Museum of Comparative Zoology at Harvard University.

The 19th Century Art of Chromolithography Briefly Explained
Chromolithography briefly explained. Each and every color was applied within individual lime stone plate. A certain kind of lime stone from a particular part of Germany. It had the correct porosity to make a lithograph. Each plate was prepared in a special process for each and every color that was applied. It took a tremendous amount of talent, and craftsmanship. Superior registration by the lithographer was imperative for the final artwork rendering to be realistic.
