Artwork Description:

CLICK ON THE ENLARGEMENT TO READ THE FULL TITLE WHICH IS, Dear Alessandra. It is Better To Be DEAD Than A Fascist, OR Mussolini Hangs Out In Milano MY original etching is adapted from drawings I did of a photo of Mussolinis death. This mixed technique etching includes intaglio, aquatint, and dry point. I used my own blend of oil base etching inks, all Charbonnel brand from France, on cream colored paper, Magnani Pescia from The Cartiera Magnani Paper Mill Italy. The print, from an edition of twelve, is 11 inches by 15. I hand print and publish my etchings at The Center for Works on Paper in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, USA. Please note that this etching is shipped to the collector without a frame or mat. This keeps the price low and allows the collector personal choice in matt selection and framing. A sturdy cardboard box is employed for shipping the work. The etching is first wrapped in two layers of acid free glassine and then placed between two archival boards. This is next placed into the shipping carton and securely packed with bubble wrap. The Absolute Arts Dot Com price includes all handling costs, shipment supplies, and the coast of the shipment box. Mailing costs are added.
