Antique Rooster Woodblock Print circa 1910 by Prosper Alphonse Isaac
Located in SANTA FE, NM
Antique Rooster Portrait
Prosper Alphonse Isaac (France, 1858-1924)
Woodblock Print circa 1910
9 x 7 1/8 (15 1/4 x 17 frame) inches
The excellent book "The Great Wave: The Influence of Japanese Woodcuts on French Prints" which was an exhibition at The Metropolitan Museum of Art in 1974, recounts the phenomenal "cult of Japan" in late nineteenth-century France and reveals through direct comparisons its particular impact on the graphic work of Manet, Degas, Cassatt, Bonnard, Vuillard, Toulouse-Lautrec, and Gauguin. This print directly relates to the discovery of Japanese art most notably through the woodblock prints which found their way to the West oftentimes as stuffing or packing materials from consumer goods that were being imported to the West at the end of the 19th century.
Prosper-Alphonse Isaac was born in a well-to-do family. This gave him the means not only of leaving his native Calais to pursue a career as an artist in Paris, but also the means to acquire art. Isaac was particularly drawn to Japanese arts, which he collected avidly. Many of the objects he bought were eventually given to museums. As a printmaker Isaac started drawing seascapes in dry point, but eventually moved on to become one of only a handful of artists versed in color woodcut techniques in France. His compositions, generally small in scale, are heavily influenced by the arts of Japan. He printed small editions of these works. Aside from this artistic activity, Isaac was also an active textile decorator.

*Signed and dated by Dix in pencil lower right
Year: 1923
Medium: Original Lithograph on light cream smooth wove paper
Limited edition: approx. 120

Publisher: Euphorion Verlag, Berlin, Germany
Reference: "Otto Dix: Das Graphische Werk" - Karsch No. 62/II c, pages 84, 147

Rare
Notes:
Provenance: private collection - Robert Kuennen, Oberlin, OH. Euphorion Verlag chop mark/blind stamp lower right. "Dix Fraukopf" (Dix Woman Head) pencil inscribed lower center.
"The brim of her hat loops to make a shadow, the better to show her gaunt profile. Strands of hair writhe against her cheek and complement a fur stole on her shoulder. In 1923 Otto Dix went to Düsseldorf to learn new printing skills, including lithography which would show his drawing skills to better effect. He made a series of character studies, including this affecting portrayal of a pale woman reduced almost to a shadow of herself. Eyes closed to the exquisite world represented by those materials set out by the artist, she seems scarcely aware." - Sotheby's, London, UK
