Geneva: Ecole des Arts Décoratifs, 1944. Paperback. Fine. Claire Finaz. Geneva. Ecole des Arts Decoratifs, 1944. 13pp. 3 fine etchings by Claire Finaz (2 full-page). Presumably published as a presentation work whilst the artist was a student at the Geneva school, this very accomplished production was limited to an edition of a mere 20 copies, 16 of which were numbered and 4 'hors commerce'. This copy, possibly the artist's own, is unnumbered, but bears her signature on the flyleaf, and in pencil on each of the full-page etchings. Unbound, as issued in printed wraps and contemporary glassine cover. ** Orné de 3 eaux-fortes, dont 2 hors-texte. 3 fine etchings by Claire Finaz (2 full-page). Tirage à 20 copies, celui-ci l'un des 4 hors commerce non numérotés. Signature de l'artiste à la page de garde et sous les deux planches principales. En feuilles, sous couverture imprimée rempliée et papier cristal. Bel exemplaire.
