About the Item

Jacques Callot (French, 1592-1635) ‘ Ne voila pas de braves messagers qui vont errants par pays étrangers ? / Are these not fine messengers, straying through foreign lands ? ‘ • Antique Etching • Laid, watermarked paper 12.5 x 23.5 cm • No damages, restoration or dramatic discoloration Worldwide shipping for this object is complimentary - There are no additional charges for handling & delivery. Jacques Callot was a prolific 17thC artist print maker. He produced hundreds of well known detailed etchings, depicting daily life, such as executions, war, festivals, court life portraying soldiers, clowns, drunkards, gypsies, beggars etc. and he is well known to set his scenes into detailed landscapes featuring in the background. The sheet here on offer is a later (prob. 18thC), mirrored version of the famous image published in the 17thC. However, still an antique print and in fine condition; it will be the privilege of the future owner, to choose how this antique print is to be presented in the future. I am Adrian Stuart Grond trading as ASGrond - Art & Antiques. Passionate collector, purveyor and artist. Here on 1stdibs I am offering Fine Art that I have collected over the last thirty years. Phantoms of Time - Things of the past - for you to add to your future and so enriching your life’s tapestry. I often choose to leave objects in the state I acquired them, chiefly to retain as much of their originality as possible, but also to leave open all options regarding the object’s future treatment and appearance. Examine the provided photographs and ask questions. I am here to assist you to my best of knowledge. Although I do of course accept returns, costs are incurred on both sides – so be sure you are confident regarding condition before purchase of any item. With some of the larger and or more valuable objects, I prefer to let 1stDibs handle delivery. However, most of my stock I deliver worldwide for free– so no extra costs on top of the sale price for those items. I do decline to accept responsibility for any declaration made to the customs authority concerning import and export. These include age, value and provenience and so on as well as the taxes concerning these. Meaning, you the buyer cover all incurring import costs, duties and taxes on your end. I pack the goods myself and very carefully. Where it makes sense, for environmental reasons I will use recycled packing materials.
