An influential 19th-century French etcher, lithographer, wood engraver and illustrator, Edmond Morin studied art in Paris in the studio of Gleyre. Shortly after completing his education Morin left Paris for London and remained in that city for eight years (1849–1857). During his London years, Morin achieved a large reputation for both his illustrations and wood engravings in such major publications as The Illustrated London News and Pen and Pencil. Morin returned to Paris in 1857 and immediately began exhibiting his art at the Salon. During the following years, he frequently contributed art to such journals as Magasin pittoresque, l'Illustration, le Monde illustré and La Vie parisienne. He also illustrated books such as L'Hotel des Haricots (1864), Paris-guide and Monsieur (1867), Madame et bebe (1878). Although a fine landscape and portrait artist, he became most famous for his scenes of everyday life. In this area, his splendid ability to capture a moment in time has led some scholars to link him with his Impressionist contemporaries. Pays quand Meme (Home all the Same) is a superb example of Morin's art.

Study for a Monument in the Heroic/Erotic/Academic/Comic Style Claes Oldenburg
By Claes Oldenburg
Located in New York, NY
This sensuous and playful scene is characteristic of Oldenburg’s printmaking ouevre: a veritable heap of women displaying various expressions of ecstasy and repose. The loose sketches were drawn directly onto the plate by the artist, a master draftsman whose erotic etchings are largely unknown. The composition is based on the drawing: Clinical Study, Towards a Heroic-Erotic Monument in the Academic/Comic Style, 1965, ball-point pen on paper, 20 x 40 in. / 60 x 101.6 cm. *This print was etched in six gorgeous inks, each in an edition of ten: take your pick of color!* Oldenburg had an interest in imaginary monuments: he famously conceptualized works such as “Ball”, an unbuilt monument conceived of in 1967 which imagined two ballcocks – the round mechanism in a toilet tank...

Une Averse sur le Boulevard Des Italiens
By Edmond Morin
Located in Saint Augustine, FL
An original etching on watermarked laid paper by French artist Edmond Morin (1824-1882) titled "Une Averse sur le Boulevard des Italiens", 1876. Issued unsigned, though signed in the plate lower right. Printed by Delâtre and published by Gazette des Beaux-Arts in Paris, France, 1876. Watermark upper left of sheet. Reference: Sanchez & Seydoux 1876-30. Sheet size: 11" x 7". Image size: 8" x 5.25". Light toning to sheet associated with age. In very good condition. This etching was published by Gazette des Beaux-Arts. The Gazette des Beaux-Arts was a French art review, found in 1859 by Édouard Houssaye, with Charles Blanc as its first chief editor. Assia Visson Rubinstein was chief editor under the direction of George Wildenstein from 1928 until 1960. Her papers, which include all editions of the Gazette from this period, are intact at the Cantonal and University Library of Lausanne in Dorigny. The Gazette was a world reference work on art history for nearly 100 years - one other editor in chief, from 1955 to 1987, was Jean Adhémar. It was bought in 1928 by the Wildenstein family, whose last representative was Daniel Wildenstein, its director from 1963 until his death in 2001. The review closed in 2002.
