About This Item

Paris , 1926. Signed oval shaped drypoint etching with aquatint, and small detail coloured by hand. Known as Élégantes au lézard. Circa 1926, Paris. The etching depicts two women on a terrace picking roses, watched over by an indignant looking exotic bird. The work is signed in pencil by Jean Hardy on the bottom, lower right. Numbered in pencil # 120 of 350. In an oval art déco style dark wooden frame. Print is assumed in excellent condition, but has not been removed from its wooden frame. The frame is in very good condition, with some minor scratches. Actual image size: 440 x 530 mm (17¼ x 20¾ inches). This is a fantastic example of the Années folles (France in the 1920s) passion for what was known as 'Boudoir Art'. Louis Icart and Jean Hardy were two of the most popular. Size in frame: 670 by 560 mm (26½ by 22 inches). Gravure à la pointe sèche de forme ovale signée à l'aquatinte, et petit détail colorié à la main. Connu sous le nom Élégantes au lézard. Vers 1926, Paris. La gravure représente deux femmes sur une terrasse en train de cueillir des roses, surveillées par un oiseau exotique à l'air indigné. L'oeuvre est signée au crayon par Jean Hardy en bas, en bas à droite. Numéroté au crayon # 120 sur 350. Dans un cadre ovale en bois foncé de style art déco. L'impression est supposée en excellent état, mais n'a pas été retirée de son cadre en bois. Le cadre est en très bon état, avec quelques rayures mineures. Taille réelle de l'image : 440 x 530 mm (17¼ x 20¾ pouces). C'est un exemple fantastique de la passion des Années folles (France dans les années 1920) pour ce qu'on appelait « l'art du boudoir ». Louis Icart et Jean Hardy étaient deux des plus populaires. Taille dans le cadre : 670 x 560 mm
