About the Item
Tailleur 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 portfolio published at the author's expense in Tokyo in 1886.
In this modern artwork, an old sailor is portrayed whilst sewing a French tailleur. The artwork is realized with a very detailed line. Titled on plate on the lower left margin.
Overall very good conditions, except for some traces of oxidation and some usual yellowing of the paper on the edges.
Georges Ferdinand Bigot (Paris, 1860 - 1927) arrived in Japan in 1881, where he immersed himself very quickly in Japanese life by learning the language, customs, and artistic practices of the country. "In the district of Kojimachi, there is a French artist named Bigot who arrived recently in Japan; he invites home dustmen, street singers or itinerant merchants, and sketches them (…)".
Indeed, Bigot published four albums of leather engravings in Yokohama: ASA (40 plates) and OHA-YO (27 plates) in 1883; MATA (20 plates) in 1884; Croquis Japonais (of which there are several different versions) in 1886. The artist realized 31 albums of caricatures called the caricaturist of the Meiji era.
