Coastal Scene at Night
Etching and aquatint, 1906, edition unknown. 18 5/8 x 25 in. Signed and numbered "113" in pencil. This is a superb, luminous impression with wide margins. The condition is very good apart from traces of adhesive, recto, in the margins from an early mount and a few repaired tears also in the margins. This large and ambitious print shows Delâtre at his best as an intaglio printmaker. This painterly print effectively conveys the mood of the moment. (There's no proper catalogue of his prints apart from the Inventaire du fonds français après 1800 which lists prints in the Bibliothèque Nationale.) Eugène was the son of Auguste Delâtre.
