Artwork Description:
This etching was made with five individual zinc plates. My inspiration originated with an antique photo, circa 1890, from the US Library of Congress, Print and Picture Collection in Washington, DC. Each of the zinc plates in this work measures four-inches high by three inches wide, or 7.62cm x 10.160cm. The image measures 4 inches high by 15 inches wide, or 10.160cm x 38.735cm. The print measures eleven inches high by twenty two inches wide, or 27.940cm x 55.880cm. My special techniques of ink application and plate wiping produce mysterious effects in this etching. This is the SECOND EDITION of five prints. No frame or mat is included in price. Shipment costs are extra.
