JOB. 1911.
Drypoint.
Signed. From an edition of 100 copies. On slightly yellowish laid paper. 14.3 x 20 cm (5.6 x 7.8 in). Sheet: 30,5 x 48 cm (12 x 18,8 in).
Printed by Delâtre, Paris. Published by Daniel-Henry Kahnweiler, Paris, in 1912. [AR].
• One of the artist's few significant early Cubist prints.
• Almost certainly conceived in Céret in the Pyrénées in 1911, where Georges Braque was staying with Pablo Picasso, today also known as the ”Mecca of Cubism.”
• Another copy of the etching is in the collection of the Museum of Modern Art, New York.
PROVENANCE: Private collection, Baden-Württemberg (since 2010, Galerie Kornfeld).
LITERATURE: Miguel Orozco, The Complete Prints of Georges Braque. Catalogue raisonné, no place, 2018, CR no. D.S. 5 (illu. in color, different copy).
- -
Galerie Kornfeld, Bern, auction 250, Modern Art, June 17, 2010, lot 220 (illu. in color).
In good condition. The edges of the sheet have been trimmed (the numbering is usually located on the wide edge of the paper at the bottom left, cf. copy in MoMA, New York, paper size there 43.9 x 60.7 cm). Very faint, irregular browning and minimal studio marks and faint handling and crease marks in the white edges of the sheet. With isolated brown spots, slightly more frequent in the upper right. Two very faint spots visible in the upper right of the image and a slightly larger one at the upper edge of the sheet outside the image (approx. 0.7 x 0.5 cm). There is also what appears to be a professionally restored tear or crease in the margin, only visible in raking light.
