About the Item

Medium: Etching Edition of 90 Year: 1975 ImageSize: 1.75 x 1.75 inches Signed, titled and numbered etching from the edition of 90. From the Expulsion series, Eve is shown naked in the garden contemplating the Fig plants around her. In individual prints, and his illustrated books, Washburn cleverly skewers human frailties with Renaissance-style engravings and tongue-in-cheek with. This is one of Washburn's largest prints, showing all types of animals co-existing peacefully in a bucolic landscape. Stan Washburn was once described as "San Francisco's finest sixteenth-century artist". While the techniques bear favorable comparison with the old masters, there is a definite modern sense of wit and irony to his works. A multi-faceted artist, Washburn's etchings and paintings are in major collections throughout the country. His first novel, Intent to Harm, was a Book-of-the-Month Club selection in 1994.
