Condition: both etchings are near
faultless impressions in near pristine condition apart from slight age-related darkening
towards the edges of the margin in “le Dejeuner” and there are minor printer’s
creases in “Eude de Nu.”
I am selling this pair of female nude
studies by one of the remarkably rare well-documented Parisienne female
printmakers during the Belle Époque for [deleted] 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 these
very beautiful nudes that hint at Delasalle’s reverence for Rembrandt, please
contact me (oz_jim@printsandprinciples.com) and I will send you a PayPal
invoice to make the payment easy.
