Théodore Rousseau (1812-1867) - Lot 280
Théodore Rousseau (1812-1867) Rock oaks. 1861. Etching. 208x134. Delteil 4. Printed in bistré brown. Very fine proof on chine appliqué, from the edition made for the Gazette des Beaux-Arts. Light foxing at the foot of the folio. Full margins. "... In 1861, Rousseau, based on his painting: Chênes de Roche, engraved a plate that Bracquemond had bitten, that Delâtre printed and that the Gazette des Beaux-Arts published (2nd half of 1861). This is the piece that sums up all of Rousseau's qualities: intimacy, grandeur, strength, science, conscience, flavor. Rousseau, like Millet, did not exhibit his etchings at the Salons; for these masters, engraving was a simple pastime". (L. Delteil).
