AI-assisted summary
Description from the seller
Egon Schiele
“Kauernder Akt, 1917”
From Otto Benesch Mappe: Egon Schiele als Zeichner, 1951
Photoprint, sheet size approximately 340 x 240 mm
After Egon Schiele. Provenance: small edition printed in Vienna by the State Print Office of Austria (Staatsdruckerei Österreich) on high-quality paper at the end of the 1940s / beginning of the 1950s.
This rare print, which demonstrates Schiele's distinctive style, is well preserved.
Very difficult to find as the majority are now in private collections.
International shipping, tracking number, insurance. Will be very carefully and securely packed.
About the phototype technique:
Phototype is the highest quality printing process ever, with only three phototype printshops left in the world today. The colour image is broken down into up to 25 colours and then printed on top of each other in as many print cycles. The finished image achieved a colour quality that was almost comparable to that of an oil image.
This technique was mainly used for illustrating books or prints in small editions. It makes possible to achieve prints of incredibly high original fidelity.
