Etching printed with tone
240 x 190 mm.; 9 1/2 x 7 1/2 inches
Provenance:
W. Benoni White (Lugt 2592)

References:
Godefroy 19 IV/VII

Pelletier, Georgia Museum of Art, 1994: nos. 46 and 47
Notes:
A very fine impression of the rare 4th state (of seven) of this major Van Ostade.
Godefroy illustrates differences between this 4th state and the following 5th state. In the latter state, there are several “escaped lines”, going obliquely from left to right, directly above the central post. These lines are not visible in the 4th state.
Ostade was one of the most important of the printmakers within the Rembrandt circle. His prints, avoiding religious subjects, depicted beggars, peasants and artisans. Combining great artistic sensitivity with thorough mastery of the medium of etching, Ostade etchings present a unique artistic panorama of life in seventeenth-century Holland.
Pelletier (S. William Pelletier, Adrian Van Ostade, U. of Georgia, 1994) calls The Singers (p. 111):
...One of Ostade’s most impressive works...The etching exemplifies Ostade’s superb handling of chiaroscuro, especially in state IV...
