Title:	J'Aime le Son de Cors
Artist:	Silverberg, David (Montreal, Quebec, born, 1936)
Date:	1971
Medium:	Original Etching & Aquatint Printed in Colour
Note:	David Silverberg: A contemporary Canadian artist with a strong international reputation, David Silverberg first studied art at the School of the Montreal Museum of Fine Arts, under Arthur Lismer. He then went to Paris to further his education at the Ecole des Beaux-Arts. At this time, David Silverberg became interested in the artistic possibilities of original printmaking and thus went to New York to study techniques under Stanley William Hayter at the famous Atelier 17. Silverberg then traveled and worked extensively in both Europe and in Russia, eventually accepting a position at the Institute of Decorative Arts and Architecture, in Grenoble.
	In 1963, David Silverberg became Professor of Graphic Arts at Mount Allison University, Sackville, New Brunswick. During the following decades his innovative etchings and aquatints have received numerous awards both in Canada and throughout the world. Colour printmaking was largely inspired by a 1967 Canada Council Grant in which Silverberg lived and worked in Kyoto, Japan, for a period of one year. While there, he extensively studied the works of the great Japanese printmakers of the past and present. The result is seen in a splendid way in this original etching where skillful patterns of colour are brought forth. There is no doubt that David Silverberg is one of Canada's greatest contemporary masters of the complex medium of colour etching.
	J'Aime le Son de Cors is undoubtedly one of David Silverberg's finest works of original art. The subject, of course, is his lover, depicted with rich floral emblems and the musical instrument of her profession. It is a fascinating portrayal of etched line and aquatinted colour and texture -- each strongly evoking the emotions of love.
