About the Item

Swimmers is a beautiful etching and drypoint, realized by the French painter and engraver Maurice Asselin, datable to the first half of the 20th century, signed on the plate, numbered, edition of 8/20 prints, on the lower left. Maurice Asselin is famous especially for his female figures, among which numerous nudes, often caught in scenes of maternity, in which he reached rare levels of delicacy, but also for the wonderful landscapes of Brittany, a region of France, to him very dear, where he has often stayed. He also traveled to Italy, in Anticoli-Corrado, a famous town of artists and models in the countryside of the region Lazio, near Rome. After the Italian experience, Asselin also traveled to London, where he exhibited his works in solo shows. The landscape represents nudes swimmers beside sea, skillfully created, the etching characterized by soft strokes that define the composition, expressing the style of Impressionist landscapes typical of this French painter.
