About the Item

RENOIR, PIERRE AUGUSTE (1841 -1919) "Femme au cep de vigne, 4th variante" Woman by the Grape Vine, 4th variant Delteil 48, Stella 48 Original lithograph in black ink, 1904 -1905 Only State. From the edition of 950 on vellum paper. Signed in the stone lower left 5 ¼” x 4” Fine strong impression with rich tone Printed at the studio of Clot, Paris c.1905. First offered for sale by Vollard in 1919 in the series: Douze Lithographies Originales (referred as the Vollard Suite).The lithographs in this series were drawn on stone by Renoir in 1904 –1905, and the editions were printed at this time. However, none of the prints were issued by Vollard until 1919. The stones were cancelled after the edition. Vollard tells an amusing story about Renoir and the lithographs in this series. Renoir was apparently very busy and Vollard was so anxious to get him to complete the prints that he used to actually follow Renoir around the town carrying a heavy litho stone ready for him to work on.By the first decade of this century Renoir was increasingly using the theme of the nude as a vehicle for the description of light and shade rather than as a linear or sculptural form. Thus his handling, in his brush drawings in particular, became loose and free so that the form of the figure blends and merges with the background shadows.A Partial Listing of Public Collections: Bibliothèque Nationale, Paris; Art Institute of Chicago; Brooklyn Museum; Boston Public Library; Museum of Fine Arts, Boston; Grunwald; Metropolitan Museum of Art, NY; Museum of Modern Art, New York; New York Public Library; National Gallery of Art, Washington DC; Philadelphia Museum of Art.

  • "Grande Tuilerie d’Ivry" from Les Maitres de l'Affiche
    By Alexandre Charpentier
    Located in Hinsdale, IL
    CHARPENTIER, ALEX (1856 -1909) "Grande Tuilerie d’Ivry" Original lithograph from "Les Maitres de L'Affiche" series Printed by Imprimerie Chaix, Paris Bearing MDL stamp lower right, issue # 33, 1898. Plate #131 Unframed Size: 11 3/8 x 15 3/4”The "Les Maitres de l'Affiche" series was offered as a subscription series to collectors every month for 60 months, from December 1895 through November 1900. The "Maitres de l'Affiche," were issued as separate numbered sheets, referred to as "plates". They were numbered, with the printers name "Imprimerie Chaix," in the margin at the bottom left hand corner, "PL.1" to "PL.240." In the margin at the bottom right hand corner of each, is a blind embossed stamp from a design of Cheret's. The smaller format and the fact the "Maitres" were a paid subscription series, allowed Imprimerie Chaix to use the latest state of the art printing techniques, not normally used in the large format posters due to cost. A very high quality of paper was used, where as the large format posters were printed on lesser quality newsprint, due to cost and a short expected life span. This explains why the quality of the printing, in the "Maitres de l'Affiche," usually far exceeds that of their larger counterparts. The text reads "Great Tileworks of Ivry, founded in 1854, Ivry-Port near Paris; the largest ceramics factory in the world for building, industry and art productions; Emille Muller stoneware; execution of works by masters of statuary; architectural facings; decorative sculpture; showroom and salesroom, 3 rue Halevy; the only tile able to bear the names Muller and Ivry; (tiles) guaranteed against frost" Given the commission for an extremely text heavy poster, the artist executes a masterful design. The angelic young boy holds the wares of this famous ceramics factory, against an abstract background awash in organic green hues. The handling of the immense text that flows from top to bottom in every available space shows great artistic skill, as the overall beauty of the design is intact. In 1989 the Metropolitan Museum of art acquired a stoneware plaque...
