About the Item

English Bar. 1908. Etching and drypoint. Exsteens catalog 275 state ii. 8 1/8 x 5 5/8 (sheet 17 3/8 x 12 1/4). Series: Les Bars. Edition 65 in this state (total edition 95). Printed on laid paper watermarked "Pellet et Legrand" on the full sheet with deckle edges. With the red Pellet stamp, lower right. Signed and numbered in pencil. Housed in a 20 x 16-inch archival mat, suitable for framing. A rather inebriated young reveler -- his hat tipped back and a pipe in his mouth -- with two lady companions. Louis Legrand was born in Dijon, France on September 29, 1863. He worked as a bank teller, and studied art at the Dijon Ecole des Beaux Arts in his spare time. At the age of twenty he won the Devosge prize at that school and a year later left for Paris. Legrand arrived in Paris in 1884, where he studied under Felicien Rops and soon became famous for his paintings, drawings and etchings depicting the Parisian beau-monde. He was awarded the Légion d'honneur for his work in 1906. A superb draughtsman , his etchings also show great sophistication. Legrand's prints were almost all published by Gustave Pellet, who published many erotic images
