CATALOGUE
50
Nearly
half of the items in this catalogue, my fiftieth I
am surprised to find, come from a single private
collection formed over thirty to forty years ago.
Many of the prints were bought at Craddock & Barnard
in Museum Street, London, others from Parisian dealers
such as Michel. Lovely old firms, whose founding
principals are now long deceased.
These prints reflect not only the personal taste of
the individual collector but the general collecting
interests and tendencies of the period. They include
classic examples of old master and modern prints.
There
is a particular emphasis on works by those whose
primary expression was as graphic artists, such as
Goltzius, Callot, Hollar, Jean Morin, and Piranesi,
and from a later era, Meryon. Examples too of other
French 19th century ‘etching revivalists’ and ‘English’ associates,
such as Whistler, Legros and Haden; of ‘French
Impressionists’, Manet, Renoir, Jongkind; as
of McBey and others working in the British ‘Etching
Boom’ years.
There are interesting obscurities too.
The
rest of the catalogue has been chosen to complement
this ‘core’ – some more of the same,
supplemented by British artists’ etchings and
aquatints from the late 18th and early 19th centuries,
and English and French lithographs from the same period.
Also by contrast small groups of wood engravings, some
wood and linocuts, and ending in a general splash of
colour.
