Armin Landeck Interior Prints
American, 1905-1984
Printmaker Armin Landeck was born in Crandon, Wisconsin, and spent his childhood in Oshkosh and in Toledo, Ohio. Before enrolling at Columbia University, he studied for two years at the University of Michigan. In New York he took summer classes at the Art Students League and visited the city's museums and galleries. By the time of his graduation from Columbia in 1927, he had become interested in printmaking and had bought a used press. In 1928 and 1929 he traveled and worked in Europe, seeing the work of the old masters and also modern art, sketching and making etchings wherever he could find an opportunity to use a press. He was greatly interested in the cubist art he saw in Paris, and the angular facets of his early compositions reflect that fascination. Returning to the United States in 1929, he settled on a farm in East Cornwall, Connecticut, but spent a great deal of time in New York City, moving back there in 1935 to teach printmaking. Throughout the 1930s he worked in etching, aquatint, drypoint, and lithography. Study with Stanley William Hayter at the New School for Social Research in New York in the early 1940s led to Landeck's extensive use of the engraving medium, but he continued to work in other etching media as well. In 1953 he was awarded a Guggenheim Fellowship that permitted him to work in Paris and to travel again through Europe. He retired from teaching in 1958 and moved back to his Connecticut farm, where he died in 1984. Landeck focused on the city in much of his work. As a student at Columbia University, Landeck earned a degree in architecture, and this training is reflected in his careful rendering of buildings and their details. In Pop's Tavern, Landeck captured both the look and the mood of an American city in the 1930s. The lighted interiors in Pop's Tavern seem to draw people in from the dark, empty streets.

Titled "Chester Cathedral" in plate, lower left corner.
Includes original card with artist's name.
Presented in a new black mat with foamcore backing.
Mat size: 16"H x 12"W

James Alphege Brewer was well known in the early 20th century as a producer of color etchings of European cathedrals and other scenes of church, college, and community. He was born July 24, 1881, in the Kensington section of London, England, the son of Henry W. Brewer, noted artist of historical architecture and prominent convert to the Catholic Church, and the grandson of John Sherren Brewer, Jr., “the brilliant editor of the Calendar of Letters of Henry VIII.” His great uncle was E. Cobham Brewer, the polymath who compiled Brewer’s Dictionary of Phrase and Fable. Among his older siblings were the artist Henry C. Brewer and the organist and writer John Francis Brewer.
Brewer attended the Westminster School of Art in London, where his brother Henry also trained. In 1910, he married Florence Emma Lucas, an accomplished painter in oil and watercolor, whose father was the noted landscape artist George Lucas and whose great uncle was David Lucas, the famous engraver for John Constable. Florence's brothers Edwin and George assisted Brewer in the printing of Brewer's etchings.
Brewer exhibited at the Royal Academy (RA) and the Royal Institute of Painters in Watercolour (RI), at the Paris Salon of the Académie des Beaux-Arts, and in the shows of the Royal Cambrian Academy (RCA). He became an associate of the Royal Cambrian Academy in 1929 and a full member in the last two years of his life. He was also a member of the Hampstead Society of Artists, the Society of Graphic Art, and the Ealing Arts Club, where he was first Honorary Art Secretary and then Honorary Art Chairman. Most of Brewer's larger etchings were published by Alfred Bell...

The reference number on this work is Kraeft 103. It's from an edition of 100 and is signed, dated, and numbered, in pencil.
Always an intaglio printmaker, Landeck switched from a more atmospheric drypoint technique to engraving while working at Stanley William Hayter's New York Atelier 17, in the 1940s. This print combines the forceful engraved diagonals with the softer drypoint lines.
This is a view from the artist's window at the Delmonico Hotel, 3 East 14th Street...
