I purchased this old lithograph in 2000 and made the certificate in 2001. We will supply this original certificate when shipping the art work. I have attached the copy from Victoria and Albert Museum collection by Napoleon Thomas's work. It show that Lithograph with hand colored. I believe it is same way done on ours too. Please note this lithograph was came from Luxembourg as the label on the back showing. The color of work kept very well and not fade away.
