About the Item

This humorous black and white Jim Dine etching features what is ostensibly the imprint of an inked stomach. Around the print, black marks, scribbles, and dots complement the text written at the top of the sheet: “Imprint from Dorian Gray’s Stomach” Etching by Jim Dine from one of his most important artist’s books – completely designed and illustrated by Dine. Signed proof aside from Edition B (edition 200) and Edition C (edition 100). Signed by the artist lower right in pencil. Dine was working on the sets and costumes for a stage version of Oscar Wilde’s famed novel, and when the play did not come to fruition, Petersburg Press proposed that he make a book using his annotated typescript of the play. Dine then drew 12 lithographs illustrating his costume and set designs which are included in the book and an additional 4 etchings, separate from the book, which are included loose in Editions A and C. Dine would go on to be a frequent Petersburg Press collaborator. A copy of this print is in the collection of the Whitney Museum of Art, New York; Museum of Fine Arts, Boston; British Museum, London; and the Metropolitan Museum of Art, New York. The book is in the collection of the Victoria and Albert Museum, London; Cleveland Museum of Art, Cleveland; Albright-Knox Museum, Buffalo; National Gallery of Art, Washington D.C.; MoMA, New York; and the Harry Ransom Center, University of Texas, Austin.
