Jules Guiette, “Riverside with Windmill, Evening”, c.1874–88

Jules Guiette (1852–1901)

“Riverside with Windmill, Evening” (descriptive title only), c.1874–88, unsigned.

Etching  with plate tone printed in a brown-black ink on heavy cream wove paper print.

Size: (sheet) 19.3 x 31.4 cm; (plate) 12.4 x 24.7 cm; (image borderline) 11.7 x 24 cm.

The British Museum offers the following description of this print: “Landscape a river with a sailing boat in the foreground and a small village in the background Etching with plate tone” (https://www.britishmuseum.org/collection/object/P_1888-0612-1647).

Condition: a strong and well-printed impression with generous margins. Beyond minor marks in the margin, the sheet is in an excelled condition with no tears, holes, folds, abrasions or significant stains.

I am selling this very poetic etching, for the total price of AU$194 (currently US$127.23/EUR117.50/GBP100.42 at the time of posting this listing) including Express Mail (EMS) 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 unusual etching that (to my eyes) exemplifies the interests and high order of skills of the Antwerp Society of Etchers (aka “Vereeniging der Antwerpsche etsers”; l’Association des aquafortistes anversois”), please contact me (oz_jim@printsandprinciples.com) and I will send you a PayPal invoice to make the payment easy.

    1. Thank your VERY much! Excellent. I'll make the important changes and if you have a reference to link the print to Jules Guiette that will be even better as I suspect the etching must have been included in a publication.
