REDUCED Luigi Kasimir Original Signed Etching, Santa Fe, New Mexico

Fine Art : Printmaking

 

Very nice original signed colored etching done by Vienna artist and print maker, Luigi Kasimir (1881 – 1962) titled "Santa Fé NM". This etching was one of a series of pieces from his United States works.

Luigi Kasimir has been one of the most collected 20th century printmakers and needs no introduction. He was born to a family of artists in the town of Pettau and attended the Vienna Academy of Art. He was a student of William Unger who introduced him to the technique of colored etchings. Kasimir was one of the first artists to develop the technique of multi-plate colored etchings. The color was applied by hand using four to six plates, a painstaking process that produced sharper images and brighter colors.

The etching is matted and framed and in very good condition.

Size of Image: 12 ¼” Height x 10 ¼” Width.
