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.

Charles Evans was a modernist known for his abstract style of painting. He studied at New York's Art Students League and Parsons School of Design, and later in Paris with Fernand Lger at the Acadmie Moderne. In 1930, Evans and his wife spent a year living in what was Paul Cezanne's studio in Aix-en-Provence, France. The following year, Evans purchased the old silk mill in New Hope and became involved in the area's modernist movement, joining the Independents in 1932. By 1935, he began to work collaboratively with Louis Stone, whom he had met in 1929 while studying with Hans Hofman in Saint Tropez, and with Charles F. Ramsey, teaching art classes and working on the Cooperative Painting Project. Every week, the three were joined by the abstract painter, Lee Gatch, in discussions at Ledger's Inn in Lambertville. In 1948 Evans co-founded the New Hope Gazette with Walter M. Teller. The same year he created set designs for St. John Terrell's Lambertville Music Circus. He also designed sets for the Bucks County Playhouse and Philadelphia's Playhouse in the Park. He later served as Set Designer for the Fred Miller...
