MARIO AVATI (Italian 1921-2009)
La GRAND MANIERE NOIRE 1962 (Passeron 335)
Mezzotint, signed, titled, dated and numbered Épreuve d’artiste X/X Plate, 17 X 22, image 15 ¼ x 20 ¼, sheet 19 ½” x 26 ¼” on Rives B.F.K.
Beautiful large scale image demonstrating Avati’s great skill in utilizing the mezzotint process. In excellent, fresh condition. Subtle plate tone around the image as the plate is one inch beyond the actual image.
