Regarding the provenance:
"F. C. Th. Baron van ISENDOORN in BLOIS (1784-1865), “Cannenburg” castle in Vaassen in Gelderland. Prints and drawings. Frederik Carel Theodoor, Baron van Isendoorn in Blois van de Cannenborch, was the last representative of a family that goes back to a Willem de Cocq, Lord of Isendoorn (below Tiel), who died in 1318. The Cannenburg castle became the property of this family around 1560 through a marriage with Margaretha van Rossem, sister of the famous general Maerten van Rossem to whom the castle had belonged since 1543. Baron van Isendoorn, mentioned above, was a zealous amateur who assembled a fine collection, especially in drawings and in prints, through purchases in the best sellers of his time (IJver, Dumesnil, de la Motte Fouquet, von Fries, de Graaf, Esdaile, Wolterbeek, Verstolk, etc.). After his death the inheritance gave rise to disputes; his widow, a Baroness van Oldeneel tot Oldenzeel, had the usufruct and the property fell to others. All the paintings, drawings and prints passed into the hands of a banker, Wolff, of Amsterdam, and a certain Cohen, interested in Wolff's business, who arranged for the public sales. J. Ph. van der Kellen, director of the Cabinet des Estampes in Amsterdam, helped with the description of the drawings and prints."

The Pig Killers, by David Deuchar after Ostade
By Adriaen van Ostade
Located in Middletown, NY
Deuchar, David (after van Ostade). Les paysans tuant un porc.
Edinburgh: c1800.
Etching on thin cream laid paper, 4 11/16 x 4 11/16 inches (117 x 117 mm), narrow margins. Horizontal edge tear extending approximately 1-inch into the image area at the center left sheet edge. Skinning at the bottom-center sheet edge, verso, and adhesive residue at the top two corners, verso. Etched by David Deuchar after van Ostade, from A Collection of Etchings After the Most Eminent Masters of the Dutch and Flemish Schools particularly Rembrandt, Ostade, Cornelius Bega and Van Vliet, Edinburgh: 22 December, 1803.
"The pig killers is one of van Ostade’s most striking, both for its circular format and unusual lighting. Pictorial representations of pig slaughtering were known in medieval book illumination where they were incorporated into depictions of activities relating to the month of November or December. In this intimate, nocturnal scene, illuminated by torchlight, van Ostade combines coarse, barnyard realism with tender observation as a peasant family gathers round to witness the slaughter of a pig, which presumably will feed the large family during the long winter months. As the eldest son kneels on the animal, the farmer’s wife collects the blood in her long handled pan...

St. Simon from Les Grands Apôtres Debout Original 17th Century Etching
By Jacques Callot
Located in Soquel, CA
St. Simon from "Les Grands Apôtres Debout, Représentant Le Sauveur, La Bienheureuse Marie et Les Saints Apôtres" Original 17th Century Etching by Jacques Callot.
This portrait of St. Simon depicts him standing in a street, holding a book and leaning on a saw. The saw is typical of St. Simon's depictions as he was said to have been martyred by being sawed in half. Very good impression of this print, with bold lines and high contrast. This leaflet contains the words "Callot fec." in the bottom right, shorthand for the Latin fecit, meaning Callot made this. This edition contains no publishers mark or numbering on the piece, indicating that it is from the first printing state.
Jacques Callot was born in the Duchy of Lorraine around 1592 to an important family in the court. He started an apprenticeship as a goldsmith at the age of 15, but later began learning etching. He is known for his technical skill in etching and for developing the echoppe style etching needle. Callot's etchings featured religious figures as well as soldiers, common people, beggars, and court individuals. His series "The Miseries and Misfortunes of War," published while Lorraine was invaded during the Thirty Years War, later influenced Goya's "Los Desastres de la Guerra...
