AI-assisted summary
Description from the seller
Artist: Jorge Castillo.
Nationality: Spanish.
Dates: Born in Pontevedra in 1933 (resident and internationally active).
Title of the work and year: Second image, 2003.
Technique: Original aquatint etching with polychromatic printing.
Edition information: Limited edition of 100 copies. The copy visible in the image clearly corresponds to an Artist's Proof (A.P.).
Signature and numbering: Numbered A.P. in pencil in the lower-left corner, just beneath the print’s impression. Signed and dated "Castillo 2003" in pencil in the lower-right corner.
Paper type: Dark-tinted or heavyweight etching paper with natural deckle edges, very characteristic of his high-quality studio editions.
Provenance: Artist's Studio
Documentation: Gallery certificate included
Condition: Excellent state of conservation. Wide, clean margins, intact deckle edges, no creases, rust stains, or color losses. Ready for framing.
Contextual Note
Second image (2003) is a superb testimony to Jorge Castillo’s graphic maturity, one of the great masters of lyrical surrealism and Spanish expressive figuration of the 20th and 21st centuries. This aquatint stands out for its mastery in combining aquatint textures on the central plate and the subtlety of the polychromatic elements (the yellow bird, the blue upper profiles, and the dense amalgam of Siena-colored faces on the right side).
As it is an Artist’s Proof, the closing of such a carefully curated international edition adds extra appeal for serious collectors of contemporary graphic works.
