About the Item
An extremely rare and lovely hand signed etching by American Maurice Sterne, dating from the turn of the century when the artist was working in Paris.
Maurice Sterne, born in 1877 or 1878 in Memel, Latvia, was a graphic artist, painter and sculptor. He studied at the National Academy of Design in New York from 1894–99. Between 1904 and 1907 Sterne lived in France where he became acquainted with the work of Paul Cézanne and French Modernist artists. Sterne’s marriage to the patron of the arts Mabel Dodge only lasted from 1917 until 1918. From then on the artist lived primarily in Anticoli Corrado, Italy and lectured at the Art Student’s League in New York. His artistic breakthrough came after an exhibition at Scott & Fowles in New York in 1926. Sterne did not return to America until 1929 where he ran the ‚Sterne-Grosz Studio – For the Art in Painting’ together with George Grosz in New York from 1932–35. The position of professor of art took Sterne to San Francisco from 1934–36. He became the first American to be given a retrospective at the Museum of Modern Art in 1933. The artist died on 23 July, 1957 in Mount Kisko, New York.
Our etching is attractively framed with a duck egg coloured silk lining to the mount. The plate size is 19 x 12.5 cm approx. A true gem.
