About the Item

Etching on laid paper. Signed and dated in plate lower left: maassluis Jongkind 1862 Published by Cadart & Luquet, Éditeurs, 79 Rue Richelieu, Paris With the blindstamp of the Société des Aquafortistes, lower margin In Vue de la ville de Maassluis (Hollande), Johan Barthold Jongkind captures a quintessentially Dutch winter scene with poetic simplicity and atmospheric finesse. The composition unfolds along a frozen canal, where skaters glide in the clear winter light beneath an expansive sky. A windmill, solitary and monumental, anchors the left side of the image, its diagonal lines counterbalancing the distant silhouette of Maassluis and its church spire. Jongkind’s etched line—at once brisk and lyrical—reveals his exceptional gift for conveying air, light, and movementthrough the most economical means. The sparse yet dynamic composition embodies the transition from realism to impressionism: the artist’s sensitivity to tonal atmosphere and the fleeting effects of light anticipate the innovations of Monet, whom he mentored. This etching stands among Jongkind’s most celebrated plates, uniting topographical accuracy with emotional immediacy. The viewer is drawn into the tranquil rhythm of Dutch life—windmill, ice, sky, and human figures harmonized within a landscape of quiet modern poetry. Excellent impression on laid paper with full margins. Subtle time toning to the outer sheet, otherwise in superb condition. Rich, even inking with strong plate tone. A pioneering figure in 19th-century landscape art, Johan Barthold Jongkind bridged the Dutch tradition of tonal realism with the emerging sensibility of French Impressionism. A close associate of Eugène Boudin and early mentor to Claude Monet, Jongkind brought to etching the same spontaneous freshness that defined his plein-air painting. His prints, such as Vue de la ville de Maassluis, celebrate the luminous atmosphere of the Netherlands, distilled through the eye of a modern artist attuned to light and transience.

Tour De Montalban, Amsterdam: A 19th C. Etching by Maxime Lalanne
By Maxime Lalanne
Located in Alamo, CA
This is a 19th century etching entitled "Tour De Montalban, Amsterdam" (Montalban Tower, Amsterdam) by Maxime Lalanne, published by Phillip Gilbert Hamerton in 1884. The etching depicts a canal scene in Amsterdam with Montalban Tower on the right. Row boats are moored along a dock in the foreground on the left and larger sail boats are seen on the other side of the dock. A boat in the middle of the canal is being rowed by one man. Many buildings are seen along both shores. This etching is presented in a white mat that is suitable for framing. This excellent impression is printed on thick chain-linked, laid cream-colored paper with wide margins and two watermarks; "Portfolio" along the left margin and "MBM" along the right margin. It is signed, titled and dated in the plate in the lower right. There is a collector's stamp (either an "NC" or a "CN") in the lower right corner. The sheet measures 10" high by 15" wide and the mat measures 13" high by 16" wide. There is a small spot in the right margin and some mild discoloration in the periphery on the upper margin. The print is otherwise in excellent condition. This etching is held by many museums and institutions, including The Fine Arts Museums of San Francisco, The Museum of Fine Arts, Boston, The Yale University Art Gallery and The Philadelphia Museum of Art. References: Beraldi (1889) 105; Villet (2016) 148, IV; Lalanne (1882) 137; Bibliothèque Nationale (1932) 82; Gutekunst (1905) 105. François Antoine Maxime Lalanne (1827-1886) was a leading French etcher and painter of landscapes and urban views, who was at the forefront of the French revival of etching during the 1860's. He grew up in Bordeaux, but he refined his artistic skills and worked in Paris. His art was first exhibited at the Paris Salon in 1852 and he continued to regularly show both etchings and paintings there until the mid 1880's. He was also the author of several important books on the subjects of etching and other graphic arts. He was a founding member of the Societe des Aquafortistes, along with Auguste Delatre, Cadart, Ribot and Bracquemond. Lalanne created over one hundred and fifty fine etchings. Lalanne's unique style of art influenced many French and English artists in the twentieth century. Philip Gilbert Hamerton (1834-1894) was a British artist, art critic and author. He was particularly focussed on contemporary graphic art and printmaking techniques. He frequently wrote about the theory of the English Etching...
