One of a total edition on 124 impressions printed by David Strang. French Series No. 33. In superb condition with one spot of light brown discoloration in the lower right margin well outside of image area. Fletcher 246. This etching was awarded the Bronze Medal of Honor in Graphics Annual Exhibition Painters and Sculptors Society of New Jersey Jersey City NJ 1951. Paper: Arms was typical of the artists of this period - he was obsessed with paper a mania for collecting paper that could/would improve an edition. The quantity he left after his death distributed by his wife to fellow artists witnesses his love for finely made paper -paper interesting because of texture color distinctive weave. The earliest paper known to have been used by Arms came from a Baptismal Register Kirchen Ordnung The Reformed Church Middletown Dauphin County Pennsylvania 1708 bought in a bookshop in Philadelphia. His early prints 1915-1919 evidence paper taken from old books with gilded edges. Some prints appear on stationary from the Cisalpine Napoleonic Italy still bearing the estampe of the office or department; others carry penned ink page numbers taken from old ledgers of the Eighteenth Century-all beautiful shades of grey blue and green handmade ribbed and otherwise. Some of his color aquatints were printed on full sheets of heavy chine or Japanese vellum giving a sense of luxury in the richness of the stock and the width of the margins. There was a myriad of modern papers gleaned in England France Italy and the United States. -William Dolan Fletcher A Man For All Times p. 15. unknown

Born in 1887 in Washington DC John Taylor Arms studied at Princeton University and ultimately earned a degree in architecture at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology in 1912. With the outbreak of W.W.I Arms served as an officer in the United States Navy and it was during this time that he turned his focus to printmaking having published his first etching in 1919. His first subjects were the Brooklyn Bridge near the Navy Yard and it was during his wartime travel that Arms created a series of extraordinarily detailed etchings based on gothic cathedrals and churches he visited in France and Italy the plate for Guardians of the Spire was created in 1921. He used what was available to him namely sewing needles and a magnifying glass to create the incredibly rich and fine detail that his etchings are known for. Upon his return to New York after the war Arms enjoyed a successful career as a graphic artist created a series of etchings of American cities and published Handbook of Print Making and Print Makers Macmillan 1934. He served as President of the Society of American Graphic Artists and in 1933 was made a full member of the National Academy of Design. Arms died in Fairfield Connecticut in 1953. unknown

Fletcher 232 Illustrated: Page 192 Arms Dorothy Noyes "Hilltowns and Cities of Northern Italy". Along with his constant companion and wife Dorothy Noyes Arms spent decades exploring and documenting gothic structures throughout Europe. Noyes an accomplished travel writer had gifted Arms an etching set for Christmas in 1913 during the time that the couple called New York home. Arms having been trained in architecture was sparked and fascinated by the potential for exceptional precision that etching provided as a media. His immediate projects focused on the architectural wonderland that Manhattan presented but he quickly realized that it was no love affair for him. Jane Glaubinger PhD. Curator of Prints Cleveland Museum of Art quotes a manuscript owned by the Museum in which Arms confides "I can admire the skyscrapers of New York that unbelievable city which is a very gold mine for the architectural etcher but I do not love them and I cannot etch what I do not love." Glaubinger explains in her 2012 essay Images of Inspiration that Arms opined that the creation of art furthered the spiritual and moral improvement of mankind and he believed that Gothic cathedrals represented "the most significant expression of man's aspirations." Arms a dedicated and industrious devotee to detail saw printmaking as a vehicle for inspiring joy and uplift in contemporary society. Glaubinger continues "Over several decades Arms traveled throughout France Italy England and Spain drawing Gothic structures. These studies were the basis for the etchings he produced back in his Connecticut studio. Arms admired the craftsmanship of medieval art and aided by magnifying glasses used fine-gauge sewing needles set into wooden handles to draw the elaborate churches on copper plates. Extremely dedicated and industrious Arms rendered each building with exceptional precision spending 1000 hours or more on a single plate. He was a gifted draftsman and technical virtuoso who created compositions full of keenly observed details and nuanced light."
