Linocuts, 1930, 100 plus 26 special sets listed as A-Z. 15 1/2 x 11 1/4 and the central image measures 15 1/4 x 14 3/4 in. Signed, dated and dedicated in ink on the title page. This example is stamped "B" from the special edition with hand coloring on the the title page. The condition is fine and the margins are full. The prints themselves were printed on Steinbach paper. (The dedication by Minne goes, "to jeanne and Nand, from all my heart. this piece (or work) from our Antwerp soil.") This exceptional work by Minne exemplifies his bold style of Belgian modernism between the wars. Minne was also a fine sculptor. (Photos of the other two images are available on request. This is the central image of the three which comprise the triptych, all printed on the same sheet and enclosed in a flexible tan folder as a cover. It's rarely found in this condition.)
