Georges Lopisgich’s drypoint, “Italianate Coastal Landscape”, c.1900

Georges Lopisgich (aka Antonio Georges Lopisgich; Georges Antonio Lopisgich) (1854-1913)

“Italianate Coastal Landscape” (descriptive title only)—a composition possibly inspired by Camille Corot (1796–1875), c.1900, a pencil-signed proof impression before lettering on parchment.

Drypoint on parchment with wide margins, pencil-signed.

Size: (sheet) 52.4 x 63.5 cm; (plate [?]/image borderline) 42.6 x 55.3 cm.

Pencil-signed by the artist: (below the platemark at lower right) “G Lopisgich”.

Condition: a strong and well-printed impression with wide margins. The parchment has natural unevenness/wrinkling associated with sheep skin and with scattered spots in the margin; otherwise, the sheet is in a good condition with no tears, holes, folds, abrasions or significant stains.

I am selling this huge and poetically beautiful, pencil-signed proof impression on an extraordinarily large sheet of genuine parchment, for AU$332 (currently US$221.91/EUR200.78/GBP176.75 at the time of posting this listing) 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 this romantic vision of a coastal landscape—note that the treatment of the scene is in the manner of Corot, whose paintings Lopisgich had reproduced in line previously (see the article offered by Blog d'HABEO Art et Estampes: https://www.alcesteart.com/article-23752891.html)—please contact me (oz_jim@printsandprinciples.com) and I will send you a PayPal invoice to make the payment easy.
