Auguste Lepère

Le Pont Marie, 1902
Etching on paper, 23 x 30 cm;
Passepartout included, 32,5 x 42 cm
Le Pont Marie is an original artwork realized by Auguste Lepère in 1902. Signed and dated on plate on the lower right corner. Titled on the upper left corner. Éprouve avant la lettre.
Very fresh and beautiful impression representing a scene with washerwomen on a river and the bridge of Marie in the distance. On the right of the composition, there are some sketched buildings and trees.
The artwork was realized by Auguste-Louis Lepère (Paris, 1849 - Domme, 1918), a French painter and etcher. He is also considered the leader in the creative revival of wood engraving in Europe. The artist began his artistic education in the Parisian studio of the engraver Smeeton. From the 1870s, he emerged from the art scene as one of the most renowned printmakers of his time.
Good conditions, except for a spot on the right margin.
