About the Item

Etching on watermarked Aqua-Fortistes cream laid paper, 7 x 12 7/8 inches (177 x 327 mm), full margins. Condition issues include minor uniform toning (worse at the sheet edges), handling creases (especially at the sheet edges), and edge wear resulting in several small nics occurring around the sheet perimeter. Printed by Delâtre, Paris. With the Cadart blind stamp in the lower-center margin. Tancrède Abraham was born on January 7, 1836 in Vitre. He was a student at the Cogniet workshop in Paris, and achieved his first public success with an etching representing the banks of the Oudon in 1863. A member of the Society of Aquafortists from 1862, Abraham collaborated with L'Illustration nouvelle and the Gazette des Beaux-Arts, where he published multiple works.

  • The Pavilion de Mademoiselle and Part of the Louvre
    By Charles Meryon
    Located in Middletown, NY
    A fine and early state impression from an almost unparralled 19th century Parisian collection curated by Loys Delteil. Etching, drypoint, and roulette on buff laid Japon paper, 5 7/16 x 9 13/16 inches (137 × 249 mm) full margins. In very good condition with light and unobtrusive scattered foxing. Some pencil inscriptions in the margins, recto, as well as the Alfred Beurdeley collection stamp (Lugt 421) in black ink in the lower left margin on the recto. There are some light scattered inscriptions in pencil on the verso, as well as a numerical stamp in blue ink, which we believe is the lot number from part III of a well-known series of sales of Beurdeley's collection organized by Loys Delteil. This portion of the sale of Beurdeley's massive collection focused on Modern Prints, and took place on May 19 – 20, 1920, in Paris. In regard to the content of the sale, Fritz Lugt states "Meryon's work included all the beautiful pieces about Paris." A rich and tonal impression. [Delteil & Wright 9; Schneiderman 12]. A note on the provenance: Alfred Beurdeley (1847-1919) was the son of one of the first antique dealers in Paris...
