La prostitution more details
La prostitution by Albert Besnard
Etchingc.1886-7316x247mm [499x322mm]
Ref: Delteil 56 state i/ii
A superb early impression printed with carefully wiped tone on Japanese vellum; one of a very small number of proofs in the first state (of two). Signed by the artist in pencil. From the series, La Femme, presumably issued in an edition of 100 in 1887. Handling marks in lower margin, minor discolouration at sheet edges in places, but generally excellent.

Robert Bevan 1865-1925
Horses in a Stable more details
Horses in a Stable by Robert Bevan
Etchingc.1893-4212x298mm [307x447mm]
Ref: Dry 1
Exceedingly rare - one of about six proofs printed on cream laid paper with the watermark, Arches, this impression with the artist's printed monogram in the lower right-hand corner of the sheet. Minor discolouration and cockling but otherwise in excellent condition with full margins.

Bevan appears to have made only three etchings, proofs of which were printed before he left Brittany in 1894. No subsequent editions were made and it is unlikely that the plates have survived.
