George Ferdinand Bigot
Gendarme - Original Etching on Japan Paper by G. F. Bigot - Tokyo 1886

1886

About the Item

Gendarme is a drypoint on Japon paper, etched on leather by Georges Ferdinand Bigot (Paris, 1860 - 1927). From Croquis Japonais, a print suite of 21 drypoints, a collection published at the author's expense in Tokyo in 1886. Titled by "the caricaturist of the Meiji era", Georges Bigot, on plate on the lower right margin. Overall very good conditions, except for some usual yellowing of paper on the edges. In this beautiful print, a Japanese military gendarme is portrayed in profile whilst wearing his uniform. The expressive touch used in this print is outstanding.
