BON À TIRER IMPRESSION CAMILLE PISSARRO
Camille Pissarro, par lui-même.

Etching and drypoint, 1890. 190x178 mm; 7½x7 inches, wide (full ?) margins. Second state (of 2). The bon à tirer impression, aside from the edition of 22. With the artist's ink stamp initials (Lugt supplement 613e, lower right recto). Inscribed "Bon à tirer" and "16 sur ce papier . . . 6 sur blanc . . ." in pencil (the latter partially erased), lower margin. Horizontal crease upper and lower margin, well outside the plate mark. A superb impression of this scarce print.

Delteil notes 28 lifetime impressions, as well as another 22 posthumous impressions printed in 1922, for which this is the bon à tirer proof. Delteil 90; Shapiro 34.
