The Chromolithograph Illustration from "Pilgrim's Progress and other works by John Bunyan" (James Sangster, c 1870) is a finely detailed, colored print that captures the essence of the character "Prudence" from John Bunyan's allegorical works. The illustration features a young woman in profile, dressed in modest, period-appropriate attire, including a white headscarf and a red dress, symbolizing virtue and wisdom. The word "Prudence" is inscribed at the bottom center of the oval frame, emphasizing the character's attribute. The imprint "Leighton Bros." at the bottom right indicates the lithographers responsible for the print. This piece is part of a larger collection of illustrations that accompany Bunyan's literary works, which were widely popular for their religious and moral teachings. The Chromolithograph process, involving multiple lithographic stones to achieve a full-color image, was a significant advancement in printing technology during the late 19th century, allowing for rich and detailed reproductions of artwork.

The process was based on lithography printing on stone, but extended so that a separate stone, each with its own color, was laid on top of the previous one. Thus, the paper sheet was printed on several times before the print was finished. This required both a number of stones and a very precise method for laying the stones.
