1803Best.-Nr. 9985London: Published by H. Macklin Poets Gallery Fleet Street 1803. Colour-printed mezzotint. In fair condition with the exception of being trimmed within the plate mark. Title has been inset. Nail burns in left margin. Tear in upper margin extending into image. Image size: 18 x 23 1/2 inches. A lovely colour printed impression of Smith's idyllic print of rural life after a painting by George Morland. George Morland was one of the most successful genre painters of his time creating during his industrious career some of England's most cherished paintings. At an early age Morland displayed his artistic genius he learned to paint at three and exhibited his first work at the Royal Academy at the mere age of ten. He was a prodigious painter producing more than 4000 paintings during the entirety of his career and sometimes painting two or three works in a day. His pleasant rural scenes were a favorite source of inspiration for contemporary engravers and as many as 250 separate engravings were done of his paintings during his lifetime. His brother-in-law William Ward engraved a great number of them. Here a young girl clings to her mother's apron as her father takes up his rifle to go hunting. Her fearful reaction is contrasted with that of the dogs who are excited and the maid who indifferently prepares the fire in the fireplace. Dawe G. Morland p. 146. Published by H.

1978Best.-Nr. 39170Rio de Janeiro: EdiOMo Funarte 1978. 25cm. Arte Brasileiro Contemporaneo. Textos de Armando Freitas Filho 46p b/w plates and color plates ports. wrps. Early catalogue of Gerchman who studied at the Rio de Janeiro School of Fine Arts. In the 1960s his work focused on mass culture. He used faces clipped from news photos but unlike Andy Warhol who used infamous celebrity he used images of anonymous individuals. These faces would be reproduced as multiple painted images in a comic-strip style. In the late 1960s Gerchman devoted his interest to urban isolation and alienation. From the mid-1960s to the early 1970s Gerchman incorporated letters and words in his paintings photographs and sculptures. During his stay in New York City from 1968-1973 Gerchman adapted to his new audience by producing works with English words. His new works still reflected Gerchman's populist nature and are rooted in concrete poetry. Some of his work with letters also addresses issues of Latin America's relative geographic location in the Southern Hemisphere EdiOMo Funarte unknown books
