German, 1894-1977

By Armin Landeck
Located in New York, NY
The reference number on this work is Kraeft 103. It's from an edition of 100 and is signed, dated, and numbered, in pencil.
Always an intaglio printmaker, Landeck switched from a more atmospheric drypoint technique to engraving while working at Stanley William Hayter's New York Atelier 17, in the 1940s. This print combines the forceful engraved diagonals with the softer drypoint lines.
This is a view from the artist's window at the Delmonico Hotel, 3 East 14th Street...
