Robbe, Sardinières au Port

Sardinières au Port (Bord de la Mer)

Aquatint, in colors, 1910 (?), 347 x 494 mm., Galerie Michael 78, edition 350. Fine, fresh impression on heavy wove paper watermarked M. Robbe fils, with very large, full margins, signed and numbered in pencil; edges of the sheet very slightly ragged and with one repaired edge tear, all far from the image. The Galerie Michael catalog gives the edition as about 100. This impression carries a tiny copyright notice dated 1935, presumably indicating a later, though still lifetime, edition. The colors here, reasonably described as lush, seem superior to those of the reproduction in the catalog. The location is probably Brittany.
