Condition: richly-inked and well-printed impression with delicate plate tone, generous margins and stamped with Sagot’s dry seal of authenticity. The sheet is in excellent/pristine condition (i.e. there are no tears, holes, folds, abrasions, stains or foxing).

I am selling this freely drawn etching with the raft of ducks that is Daubigny’s unofficial trade mark, for the total cost of AU$196 (currently US$141.89/EUR125.07/GBP110.69 at the time of this listing) including postage and handling to anywhere in the world (but not, of course, any import duties/taxes imposed by some countries).

If you are interested in purchasing this exemplary etching of Daubigny's commitment to direct observation of nature and the effects of light on landscape, please contact me (oz_jim@printsandprinciples.com) and I will send you a PayPal invoice to make the payment easy.
