La Sarcleuse - estampe originale enrichie d'un envoi autographe à Maximilien Luce

Camille PISSARRO & (Maximilien LUCE)

La Sarcleuse - estampe originale enrichie d'un envoi autographe à Maximilien Luce

s.d. (1887), feuille : 20,5x30,5cm ; cuivre : 11x16,1cm, une feuille.


Rare original etching by Camille Pissarro, titled “La Sarcleuse”, one of 12 prints in 2nd state, after the artist's first state print and three or four proofs in second state.
Like several other copies, it is marked in pencil “2e Etat imprimé par F. Jacques”. Uniformly browned, scattered foxing, leaf outer margins sunned with tiny tears.
Exceptionnally inscribed by the artist to his great friend, the painter Maximilien Luce: “pour l'ami M. Luce”.
Another print provides context for this beautiful portrait, which is said to have been inspired by the silhouette of a peasant woman in the fields at Eragny, in the Oise region. This rare and superb etching can be compared with the painting of the same name, Les Sarcleuses, Pontoise, 1882, exhibited at the VIIth Impressionist Exhibition.
Cited in the catalog raisonné of Loys Delteil, 72.
