About This Item
Eau-forte originale; aquatinte; une des 20 de l'album "Du Ier au XXe. Les arrondissements de Paris", 1903. Album tiré à 200 exemplaires dont 175 sur papier crème de Hollande, comme ici. Ces eaux-fortes sont signées dans les plaques, et on ne les trouvent quasiment jamais signées à la main. -
1/175 sur Hollande. 184 x 148mm (image); avec les marges: 217 x 165mm. Monté sur le support anthracite d'origine. Comme publié; en très bon état. - Laran 196. -
A great print; likely the best from the album, and certainly a major print within his entire engraved work (436 prints). Apart that this print shows very well the artist's skills as an etcher, there's something else and unusual. Normally the weather does not play an important role in Béjot's etchings, mostly urban landscapes/scenes, while here the weather is very much pronounced. Therefore the print can be seen as a salute/tribute to a colleague printmaker, Félix Buhot, a friend, somewhat older than Béjot, who had died April 1898, and who was a true champion of 'bad weather' prints in 19th century French engraving. - [Extra shipping cost for all destinations out with Europe]
