Le Demon Ailé - Etching and Drypoint - 1969
Located in Roma, IT
Le demon Ailé is a wonderful black and white drypoint realized in 1969. The artwork is from the portfolio "Vénus aux fourrures", edited by Pierre Argillet, Parigi, 1969. Hand signed in pencil by the artist on the lower margin. Dry stamp on the lower right margin Numbered on the lower left margin. Ed.21/75. Good conditions except for some light yellowing of paper along the margin. Ref: Michler Lopsinger, "Salvador Dali Catalogue Raisonne of Etchings and Mixed-Media Prints 1924-1980", Prestel 1994, n. 371. Salvador Dalí (Figueres, 1904 – Figueres, 1989) is considered one of the most versatile and prolific artists of the XX century and the founding father of Surrealism. In the course of his long career, he successfully experimented with sculpture, fashion, writing, and filmmaking. Dalí epitomizes the idea that life is the greatest form of art; André Breton said about him: “It is with Dalí that, for the very first time, the windows of the mind are wide open”. He always pushed boundaries, and he did the same with conventional lithography. He experimented a lot, also with techniques that would not be allowed today. He was a prolific printmaker, using techniques as drypoint, etching, woodcut and lithography. His output is esteemed at 1700 prints...

Dead Bird for Craigie No. 2

A contemporary of David Hockney and Peter Blake, Colin Self is an important British printmaker whose innovative etching techniques and novel use of found materials have defined his diverse oeuvre. Yet unlike most artists associated with Pop Art, Self eschewed glossy, colorful bombast for nuanced drawings in a limited palette. Self's imagery has ranged from the geopolitical -- nuclear bombers, fallout shelters; to American icons -- hot dogs, Coca Cola cans; to the everyday -- intimate scenes of animals and plants, and whimsical figure drawings. This arresting portrait of a raven's body is executed in moody shades of black and grey. A tangle of short, sharp marks swirls against the white background, resembling flying birds.

Original Drypoint Art and Other Fine Art Prints

Original drypoint prints and other types of fine art prints can help enhance any room in your home while supporting your effort to tie an interior design together.

Similar to engraving, with drypoint, an artist incises a metal plate with a sharp tool. As the metal is carved, metal shavings, also called the burr, build up in the grooves. But unlike with engraving, the burr is not cleaned away with drypoint, resulting in very soft, velvety lines. Since the burr slowly wears away with each printing, fewer impressions can be made, and the first impression tends to be stronger than the last — a characteristic that sets the technique apart from many other printing methods.

Drypoint is a simple technique used to produce intaglio prints. Intaglio is a broad term for the variety of methods used to create images by incising a metal plate, either with a sharp instrument (engraving, drypoint and mezzotint) or with acid (etching, aquatint and photogravure). 

“If you talk to great artists, they see printmaking as another part of their practice that often informs what they do,” says Sharon Coplan Hurowitz, a print specialist and art adviser who has worked on major print projects over the years with Johns and Ellsworth Kelly and authored the catalogue raisonné of John Baldessari’s prints
