Birth and Baptismal fractur, watercolor on paper, drawn by Martin Brechall. This fractur documented the birth of Carl Stulver in 1808, in Bethlehem Township, PA. Carl Stulver married Anna Marie Sendisin in 1831, (see item #260161 for her birth fractur), and the two fracturs descended in the families of the subjects until recently being consigned to auction. The couple were the owner’s grandmother’s great-grandparents.
Martin Brechall (c. 1757–1831) was a highly prominent American folk artist who specialized in creating Pennsylvania German fraktur during the "Golden Age" of fraktur (1790–1830).
