Félix Hilaire Buhot Art
French, 1847-1898
Buhot’s prints were made at a time of renewed interest in original printmaking (especially etching), which was rapidly becoming more popular than reproductive engraving. His etchings were singled out for praise as early as 1874 by the preeminent critic Philippe Burty, who admired the artist’s belles épreuves (beautiful proofs)— a term Burty promoted to denote rare, superbly inked impressions printed by the artist himself. By the 1880s Buhot had become one of the best-known and most collected printmakers of his day. Buhot’s renown extended well beyond his own country, and he also enjoyed critical acclaim and strong support for his prints in the United States.
In 1888 the New York print dealer Frederick Keppel (1845-1912) gave Buhot his first one-man exhibition, which was quite successful. In addition to Keppel, Buhot became friends with two prominent late nineteenth-century American collectors who amassed large numbers of the artist’s prints: Samuel P. Avery (1822-1904) of New York collected over 300 prints and George A. Lucas (1824-1909) of Baltimore owned some 200 prints. Beginning in 1911, another large collection was formed by Albert H. Wiggin (1868-1951) of Boston, who bought over 150 impressions. Today, these collections can be found in, respectively, the New York Public Library, the Baltimore Museum of Art, and the Boston Public Library.to

By James Abbott McNeill Whistler
Located in New York, NY
James Whistler (1834-1903), J.H. Woods’ Fruit Shop, Chelsea, etching and drypoint, 1887-88. Signed with the butterfly on the tab and annotated “imp,” also signed with the butterfly in pencil verso and numbered “1”. References: Kennedy 265 second state (of 2), Glasgow 327 second state (of 4). Trimmed by the artist around the plate mark except for the tab, in excellent condition. Printed in black ink on ivory laid paper, 3 3/4 x 5 1/8 inches.
A fine impression of this great rarity; the print was never published. Glasgow accounts for four impressions.
watermark: partial arms of Amsterdam(cf. Spink/Stratis/Tedeschi, watermark nos. 12ff.)
This is before the third state in which heavy shading was added around the woman at the center, and the heads of figures at right and left of the figure are defined. In Glasgow’s fourth state the shading and the figure were removed; no impression is known of this state, but the state is inferred from the cancelled plate.

La neige à Paris (Snow in Paris) - Etching by F. H. Buhot - 1879
By Félix Hilaire Buhot
Located in Roma, IT
Wonderful etching, aquatint, drypoint, and wheel on laid ivory colored paper. Signed inside out on plate on the lower margin at the center. Each image of the composition is hand-titled on the plate on lower margins. Fourth state on nine. Edition of the “L’Art. Excellent conditions, including ivory colored cardboard passe-partout (cm 33.5 x 49).
The print has been given the titles of “L’Hiver à Paris “ or “ La Neige à Paris”. The modern artwork represents the rigorous winter of 1879 with Arctic temperatures and vast quantities of snow covered the Parisian streets.
Reference: B.G. I28
The present print, one of his best known, exemplifies these preoccupations. The published version appeared in the journal L'Art (n° 314) in January 1881.
As Bourcard clearly states "There were numerous trial proofs pulled and an extraordinary variety of printings in the various impressions of this plate. There exist a few rare artist's proofs of the state before the words: L'Art, the number 25, L'Hiver de 1879 à Paris."
