Georges Lopisgich, “Italianate Coastal Landscape”, 1901 (2nd impression)

Georges Lopisgich (also known as Antonio Georges Lopisgich) (1854–1913)

“Italianate Coastal Landscape” (descriptive title only) — a composition possibly inspired by Camille Corot (1796–1875), c.1901. This is a pencil-signed proof impression featuring a remarque image of a twig and flower with the artist’s monogram (located at left-of-centre in the lower margin), along with publication details (at the upper right edge).

Please note that this is the second impression of Lopisgich’s large etching I have showcased. The previous copy (without remarque or publication details) is still available: https://www.printsandprinciples.com/2023/09/georges-lopisgichs-drypoint-italianate.html

Technical Details & Condition:

Drypoint on parchment printed in Paris and published in Paris, London, and New York by Manzi-Joyant (Michel Manzi, Maurice Joyant, and Jean Boussod). This is a richly inked and pencil-signed proof impression with wide margins. The impression features a remarque image of a botanical study, alongside the artist’s monogram.

Aside from the natural unevenness and minor wrinkling associated with sheep skin (parchment), as well as scattered spots in the margin, the large sheet remains in good condition. There are no tears, holes, folds, or significant stains within the image.
