Achille Ouvre, “L'Orchestre”, 1927

Achille Ouvre (aka Achille Ouvré) (1872–1951)

“L'Orchestre”, 1927, a pencil-signed impression inscribed as number 9 in an edition of 100 impressions (9/100), published in Paris by Editions Albert Morancé (fl.1922 –1968) in the art review, “Byblis Miroir des Arts du Livre et de l'Estampe”, 1927.

Etching with drypoint and/or engraving and plate tone on fine wove paper, pencil signed and numbered with full margins as published.

Size: (sheet) 22.6 x 28.1cm; (plate) 17.2 x 24.5cm; (image borderline) 16.2 x 23.4cm.

Inscribed below the image borderline: (in plate at right with the artist’s monogram) “A.O.”; (in pencil at left) “9/10”; (in pencil at right) [artist’s signature].

Condition: a faultless impression in pristine condition with no tears, holes, folds, abrasions, stains or signs of handling. Verso has pencil inscriptions giving details about the print.

I am selling this insightfully portrayed duet of a pianist and a violinist—note how the artist has captured perfectly the facial expression (somewhat hard to pin down in words) of a pianist attentively and dutifully accompanying the intensely focused passion of a violinist—for the total cost of AU$288 (currently/approximately US$192.28/EUR177.94/GBP147.97 at the time of 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. Note that payment is in Australian dollars (AU$288) as this is my currency.

If you are interested in purchasing this superb etching of performers abandoned in their endless moment of accord in music making, please contact me (oz_jim@printsandprinciples.com) and I will send you a PayPal invoice to make the payment easy.
