Note: | Felix Bracquemond: Famous both for his etchings after his designs and the designs of his contemporaries, Felix Bracquemond was a major artist of the nineteenth age of fifteen, he was largely self-taught in the art of etching and produced his first prints in this medium at the age of nineteen. As a young man he befriended such artist-etchers as Manet and Legros as well as such authors as Gautier and the Goncourts. In 1863, at the age of thirty, Felix Bracquemond was awarded the French Legion of Honour for his contribution to the art of etching. |
A master of every genre, Felix Bracquemond's influence was enormous, particularly in France and Britain. During his life, Felix Bracquemond achieved distinction not only for his own etchings but for his etched interpretations after the art of Delacroix, Millet, Ingres, Rousseau, Moreau, Meissonier and others. | |
Henri Beraldi and "Les Gravures du XIX Siecle": From 1885 to 1892 the influential French writer, Henri Beraldi issued a twelve volume series of biographical catalogues under the title of "Les Gravures du XIX Siecle". With the emphasis placed upon living French etchers and lithographers, Beraldi requested a number of contemporary masters to contribute original graphic works for the catalogues dedicated to them. The response was an incredible success with such major artists as Felix Buhot, Henri Guerard, Boutet, Henri de Grandmaison, Jules Cheret, Felix Bracquemond and Auguste Lepere contributing brilliant works of a scale and size to fit within the pages of these volumes. | |
A valuable and scarce reference source, the volumes from these catalogues and particularly the original prints are very difficult to obtain. Henri Beraldi is to be thanked for commissioning these great works, which represent some of the finest graphic art from one of the most exciting eras of the art of France. | |
