I
am selling this two-colour woodcut of the famous poet and artist, Edmond Rocher—note
that in 1927 Rocher was named as a knight of the Legion of Honor—for the total
cost of AU$202 (approximately US$132.94, EUR 112.60 or GBP 97.26), including
express mail shipping worldwide. Import duties, if any, are the responsibility
of the buyer.
If
you are interested in purchasing this bold and finely executed colour woodcut—interestingly,
Vilbert’s use of the pale colour of the paper in combination with the mid-tone
tan and dark brown is termed a chiaroscuro woodcut—please contact me
(oz_jim@printsandprinciples.com) and I will send you a PayPal invoice to make
the payment easy.
