Zorn's (1860-1920) intimate portrait of the Chicago businessman Charles Deering and his wife. Deering (1852-1927) was an avid art collector and amassed a collection of etchings by Zorn that was unrivaled outside of Zorn's own collection.
We have found only 9 other impressions at auction in the past 30 years. Delteil 78; Asplund 78; Hjert/Hjert 55.
