Portrait of Miss Edith Austin
Etching and dyrypoint, 1895-1900, 149 x 100 mm., Hausberg 53 ii/ii, 20 impressions of this state, 24 in all. Provenance: Miss Hetty Pettigrew (Roussel's model).
Fine, delicate impression with modulated plate tone on old laid paper, trimmed near the platemark and signed in pencil on the tab. There is a dedication to Hetty Pettigrew and a second signature on the reverse. While showing a certain similarity to portrait studies by Whistler of both the 1880s and 1870s, the work is really in a genre of vignetted heads that Roussel carved out for himself and used consistently from 1887 through 1924. Edith Austin was a niece of Roussel's first wife and remained a close friend of the artist to his death.
