The image size is 6 high, or 15.24 cm by 9 inches wide, or 22.9 cm. This is the third print from an edition of fifteen. Techniques employed included intaglio etching on hard and soft grounds, aquatint, and drypoint. My paper was RivesBFK white, and the ink was a French, oil base one from Paris, Charbonnel brand. This work entitled, Initiation Dance form The Villa of the Mysteries in Pompeii, was hand printed and published by the artist at The Center for Works on Paper in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. Please note that this etching is shipped to the collector without a frame or mat. This keeps the price reasonable and allows the collector wide personal choice in mat 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.
