"The color etchings were beautifully printed by Lacourière, who introduced Rouault to lift-ground, or, sugar aquatint process. "Rouault made the black key plates and Lacourière the color ones, each of which printed two or more colors in the same range - a difficult procedure possible only if the colors do not run in inking and wiping. As each plate was proofed, it was submitted to Rouault for approval or correction before the final printing"--The Artist and the Book 271; "

Provenance: Terry Allen Kramer
Notes: Terry Allen Kramer, Tony-Winning Producer, Is Dead at 85
New York Times Obit
By Anita Gates
May 5, 2019
Terry Allen Kramer, the colorful Broadway producer who won five best-production Tony Awards in 16 years but was just as well known as the grande dame of Palm Beach, Fla., died on Thursday in Manhattan. She was 85.
Her death, at NewYork-Presbyterian/Weill Cornell hospital, was confirmed by her New York office, which said Ms. Kramer had contracted pneumonia while visiting Lyford Cay in the Bahamas last month.
Ms. Kramer’s first Tony was for Edward Albee’s “The Goat, or Who Is Sylvia?” (2002), the unexpected story of a married architect who falls in love with a female of another species. It was named best play. Her last Tony was for “Hello, Dolly” (2017), the widely praised Bette Midler production about Thornton Wilder’s 19th-century larger-than-life widowed matchmaker. It was named best musical revival. (She and Ms. Midler had worked together before, on the 2013 solo show “I’ll Eat You Last: A Chat With Sue Mengers.”)
In between, Ms. Kramer won Tonys for two shows that featured drag performers as major characters: “La Cage aux Folles” (2004), best musical revival; and “Kinky Boots” (2013), best musical. She also produced the family drama “The Humans” (2016), by Stephen Karam, which won four Tonys, including best play.
Although she kept her awards in her Manhattan home, she was better known for her Florida residence. When La Follia, her Palm Beach estate, was put on the market last fall for $135 million, it was said to be the most expensive American property ever listed. An Italianate villa, facing both the Atlantic Ocean and the Intracoastal Waterway, the home covers more than 37,000 square feet, with 13 bedrooms, a movie theater and its own fitness center.
“I’ve been to it,” the New York Post gossip columnist Cindy Adams wrote at the time. “It’s larger than Utica.”
Invitations to Ms. Kramer’s annual Thanksgiving dinner at La Follia were prized, and even other celebrity hosts praised her — particularly for standing at the buffet, alongside her staff, serving the guests herself. Photographs taken there and around the world showed Ms. Kramer, instantly recognizable by her signature long blond hair, deep tan and (often) diamond earrings, with famous friends like Joan Collins, Jerry Hall, Denise Rich and Ivana Trump. La Follia is not far from the Trump family’s Mar-a-Lago resort.
Friends joked that Ms. Kramer and the actor George Hamilton had become close friends because they so admired each other’s suntans.
Terry Allen was born in Manhattan on June 20, 1933, the daughter of Charles Allen Jr., the founder of his family Wall Street investment firm, and Rita (Friedman) Allen.
Terry’s brothers were brought up to take over Allen & Company. Marriage and children were the future her father wanted for her, Ms. Kramer told The New York Times in 1984. She attended Vassar, and she married young, but by the time her children were in high school, she said, Mr. Allen had agreed that a job might not be the worst idea. “He told my husband, ‘Find Terry something to do,’ ” she recalled.
Ms. Kramer was 41 when she produced her first Broadway show, “Good News,” a 1974 revival of a 1927 musical, with a cast that included Alice Faye and Stubby Kaye. It was described by the critic Clive Barnes in The Times as “entirely recycled, up-to-the-minute nostalgia.” The show opened two days before Christmas and closed on Jan. 4.

In 1977, things went much more smoothly with “I Love My Wife,” a relatively low-budget musical comedy, with music by Cy Coleman, that ran two years and won two Tony’s and six Drama Desk Awards.
“You might say it’s another Allen deal,” she told The Times cheerfully that year, referring to the family company. “Invest a do
llar to make 10. That’s what my father always did.” (When she signed up investors, a reporter noted, they tended to have surnames like Bronfman, Salomon and Lasker, not to mention Allen.)
Like most successful Broadway producers, Ms. Kramer dealt with flops as well as hits. “Sugar Babies” (1979), an old-timey revue starring Mickey Rooney and Ann Miller, was reported to have doubled investors’ money, thanks to productions as far afield as London and Sydney. “I really didn’t know it would go,” Ms. Kramer said, looking back. “What do I know about burlesque?”
While “Sugar Babies” was still running, “Frankenstein” (1981), a nonmusical with a major budget for special effects, opened and closed the same day. But then “Me and My Girl (1986),” based on a 1937 London musical romantic comedy, was hailed by The Times as “sheer happiness” and ran three years.

Georges Rouault
Executed in 1937, Carlotta belongs to a group of portraits of members of society. Unlike Picasso and Toulouse-Lautrec, who portrayed these individuals with pathos, Rouault’s approach was unapologetic and raw. In the present work several layers of pigment can be discerned; the build-up of translucent and opaque layers of paint creates a three-dimensionality that characterizes the artist’s strongest work. Furthermore, the work is highlighted by the deep swaths of black delineating the subject, representing a signature element of Rouault’s portraiture of this period.
