About the Item

Etching and drypoint on watermarked Hudelist laid paper, 9 5/8 x 5 inches (245 x 129mm) full margins. Second state (of five) after lettering. A superb condition with a pencil inscription in the lower left margin on the verso. [Schneiderman 24, ii/v; Delteil/Wright 29 ii/v]. The house stood at the corner of the rue de Coq, demolished in 1851, and is now part of the extended rue de Rivoli in Paris. Meryon sought to capture the architecture and spirit of an ancient Paris that was soon to be lost due to modernization.

He was a French artist who worked almost entirely in etching, as he suffered from color blindness. Although now little-known in the English-speaking world, he is generally recognized as the most significant etcher of 19th century France. His most famous works by him are a series of views powerfully conveying his distinctive Gothic vision of Paris. He also suffered from mental illness, dying in an asylum.
