About the Item
On s'amuse is a beautiful black and white linocut on paper, realized in 1945 by the Italian artist, Mino Maccari.
Hand-signed as "Jean Barbe" and numbered in pencil on lower margin. Edition of 300 prints.
From the volume "On s'amuse : 16 gravures en bois par Jean Barbe" published by Documento, Rome.
This modern artwork and original print representing an extreme erotic dream with the expression of the joy connected with the satisfaction of the pleasure, is in excellent conditions: as good as new with a lifetime impression and a wonderfully fresh line. A white cardboard passepartout is included, cm 49 x 34..
In 1945 Mino Maccari published a folder containing 16 linoleum with a strongly erotic subject, entitled "On s' amuse!". Because of the unpleasantness of the subject, scandalous subject for the time, he signed with the pseudonym of Jean Barbe. The print run was 300 copies, 40 of which "before letter", numbered in Roman numerals, hand-painted by Maccari himself and signed by him "J.B."
