Solid Reflections
Etching, engraving, aquatint and soft ground, 1953-55 , Baro 24, Pace 47; edition 20. 27 3/8 x 21 3/4 in. Signed, numbered and titled in pencil. This is a superb, rich impression printed on RIVES watermarked paper. The margins are full and the condition is excellent. This was one of about thirty etchings Nevelson did while working at Atelier 17 in New York between 1953-55. One a few proofs were printed at that time. The formal edition was printed at the Hollander Graphic workshop by Emiliano Sorini between 1965 and 1966 under the supervision of the artist. This impression is from this edition. The imagery here anticipates her growing interest in black sculpture.
