Description:
Rome: Nicolas van Aelst, 1613. Engraving on cream laid paper with a foolscap watermark, 11 1/4 x 8 inches (282 x 203 mm), thread margins. Scattered expert repairs including minor pulp patches, minor rubbing and one 1/4 inch area of in-painting in the top left margin, in the area of the God's robes. All condition issues are consistent with age, and do not present significantly on the recto. A fascinating depiction from the Book of Genesis. [Bartsch XVII.129.236]. Antonio Tempesto's Cainus fratri necem molitur is an extremely interesting composition that tells the story of Cain and Abel, the first born sons of Adam and Eve, in four visual chapters. The story begins in the far background to the right of the central action. An intimation of the the recent past, we see Cain, a farmer, and Abel, a shepherd, making their sacrifices to God. Cain offers the fruits of the land, while Abel offers the first born lamb from his flock. God prefers Abel's offering, and shows favor to him. Cain, dejected, invites…

Jean-Baptiste-Camille Corot (1796-1875) is an esteemed name in a very distinguished century for French art. Though best-known as a landscape painter, he was also a prolific and masterful printmaker. Renowned for bridging the Neoclassical tradition with Realism and a plein air approach, Corot struggled to gain acceptance amongst the European artistic establishment. He traveled extensively in Italy and France, finally settling in the Barbizon region, near Fountainbleu. It was here that his landscapes, all…

Description:
1929. Etching on antique cream laid paper, 12 7/8 x 5 1/2 inches (328 x 140 mm), full margins. Signed in pencil, lower margin. Laid down to non-archival board, general age tone and some mat tone. The image itself is superb and well inked. Paper: Arms was typical of the artists of this period - he was obsessed with paper, a mania for collecting paper that could/would improve an edition. The quantity he left after his death, distributed by his wife to fellow artists, witnesses his love for finely made paper -paper interesting because of texture, color, distinctive weave. The earliest paper known to have been used by Arms came from a Baptismal Register Kirchen Ordnung, The Reformed Church, Middletown, Dauphin County, Pennsylvania, 1708, bought in a bookshop in Philadelphia. His early prints, 1915-1919, evidence paper taken from old books with gilded edges. Some prints appear on stationary from the Cisalpine Napoleonic Italy, still bearing the estampe of the office or department; others carry penned ink…
