About the Item

Royal Insurance Building of Canada. (Royal Globe Insurance Company Building) 1927. Drypoint. 12 x 6 1/2 (sheet 17 1/2 x 10 1/2). A rich impression with selective plate tone printed in black/brown ink on cream wove paper. Signed in pencil. Housed in a 20 x 16-inch archival mat, suitable for framing. Rosenberg's first published print of 1927 was a drypoint of the Royal Insurance Building of Canada in New York. From his personal journal, we know that it was executed on January 18th in London and that 108 proofs were printed on 'modern' paper and signed. The alternate name of the building is the Royal Globe Insurance Company Building. It is located in the financial district of Manhattan, 150 William Street to Gold Street, Fulton to Ann Streets. The architects were Starrett & Van Vleck, for whom Rosenberg worked. The style is neo-classical.

  • Mornings with Judd (Second state)
    By Peter Milton
    Located in Middletown, NY
    Lift ground and hard ground etching and engraving on Murillo white wove paper, 18 x 24 inches (455 x 608 mm), full margins. Signed, dated, titled and numbered 60/100 in pencil, lower margin. Printed and published by the artist. In very good condition with minor age tone and scattered light surface soiling on the verso. Framed handsomely in an original Kulicke welded aluminum frame with the embossed maker's mark. [Milton 61]. Milton revisited this image in 1974 during an experiment to explore collage and the process of contact printing a high resolution photo-transparency directly onto a copper plate. He printed a small detail transparency of Mornings with Judd onto the existing plate, alongside it's larger self, and broke through to a new photo-resist approach, which Milton described as "piquant and irresistible," in his essays appearing in Robert Flynn...
