About the Item
Signed, lower right, in pencil, 'Cuca Romley' (Spanish, born 1933), titled 'Plage de Menton' lower center and inscribed, lower left, with number and limitation, '77/175'.
An elegant view of this famous resort town in the South of France with bathers and holiday makers seen on the beach and a view beyond to the famous 17th century, baroque Basilica of St. Michael.
Born in Madrid, Cuca Romley studied at the Ecole des Beaux-Arts in Paris. Over the course of a long career, she has exhibited internationally with success including at the Salon Nacional de Dibujos de Alta Costura, Madrid, (1957-60), the Ecole des Beaux-Arts, Paris (1960), the New York Institute of Technology and the Galerie Charbonel in Monte Carlo among others. Ms. Romley has been the recipient of numerous prizes, medals and juried awards including the coveted First Prize at the Salon de L’Union des Femmes Peintres in Paris (1971),
Cuca Romley brings the patience and craft of the old masters to her chosen medium. Each plate is etched in exquisite detail with a thoroughness reminiscent of the early days of engraving. She first creates her intricate design on the etching ground that covers the copper plate. After the acid has etched the lines into the copper plate, she engraves further detail into the plate with a burin until she is satisfied with the image. For each individual print, a master printer must ink the plate and thoroughly wipe the surface clean. The plate is then placed on the bed of the press and the dampened, 100% cotton Arches paper covers the plate as it passed through the press. After the ink has dried, the etching is ready for the artist's hand coloring process. More than 30 colors may be applied to one of Ms. Romley's images. Each print may take up to 6 hours to hand-color with the carefully chosen, transparent and translucent washes that complement the artist's delicacy of line. Once completed to the artist's satisfaction, each etching of the limited edition is then signed and numbered by the artist.

View All'Cherry Blossoms at Dusk', Japanese color woodblock, Musashino College of Art
Located in Santa Cruz, CA
Signed lower right, 'Morihiro Sato' (Japanese, born 1943), with artist chop mark, and dated 1985; titled, lower left, in English and Kanji 'Cherry Trees (Dusk)' with number and limitation, '3/55'.
Paper dimensions: 24.25 x 35.5 inches
A fresh and unfaded woodblock print showing a view of cherry tree boughs heavy with glowing blossoms before a vista of rolling hills with stylized Japanese pine beneath a luminous, golden sunset.
Morihiro Sato graduated from Musashino College of Fine Art before studying under the printmaker Joichi Hoshi (1913-1979). Sato’s work focuses on the beauty of nature, particularly that of trees. Through the medium of woodblock with inclusion of metallic pigments, his delicately atmospheric prints evoke a sense of gentle sense of wonder.

By Luigi Kasimir
Located in Santa Cruz, CA
Signed lower center, in pencil, 'Luigi Kasimir' (Austro-Hungarian, 1881-1962), and with title and date, 'Palo Alto, 1931'. at lower right.
Paper dimensions: 12.25 x 16 inches.
N.B. This is an original etching by Luigi Kasimir and is hand-signed by the artist.
The notable etcher and painter, Luigi Kasimir, attended the Vienna Academy of Art where he studied under William Unger, who introduced him to colored etching. Kasimir was influenced by Anders Zorn and Karl von Kalckreuth and he furthered his studies with Sigmund L'Allemand.
A pioneer in the technique of hand-colored etching, Kasimir began exhibiting in 1905 and received immediate critical recognition. Starting with a sketch, usually in pastel, Kasimir would transfer the design, by hand, onto as many as six plates, applying the color by hand to each plate. Luigi Kasimir's work is held in private and public collections throughout the world including in the permanent collections of New York's Metropolitan Museum and Smithsonian Museum, among others.
