Condition:
gigantic etching (almost a metre in length!) with a few minor pressure marks,
especially along the edges, resulting from handling its huge size, otherwise
the sheet is in good condition.
I
am selling this huge etching—a monster!—showcasing the distinctively bold
cross-hatched style of one of Italy’s most famous artists of recent times for the
total cost of AU$730 (currently US$500.96/EUR451.32/GBP384.98 at the time of
this listing) including postage and handling to anywhere in the world (but not,
of course, any import duties/taxes imposed by some countries).
