About the Item

Medium: hard ground etching and aquatint Image size: 7.5" x 5.5" Paper size: 13" x 11" Printing element: 1 copperplate Edition Size: 135 Beautiful etching and aquatint from an artist know for his depictions of trees and architecture. His prints have been winning awards and placement in significant collections for more than 30 years. Beautiful botanical prints mixed with architectural details. "I am naturally attracted towards realism and approach my work knowing that both conscious and unconscious influences will impart its direction. I feel that these influences have been the theories of picture-making. I have an enormous respect for the art of the past and particularly for that of the great draftsmen of the Italian Renaissance. I believe that one can retain respect for these masters without necessarily imitating or becoming subordinate to them. I realize that my art comes from both art history and life, and there is succession and lineage in all art.”
