JEAN-BAPTISTE-CAMILLE COROT Environs de Gênes.
Cliché-verre, 1860. 206x158 mm; 8 1/8x6 1/8 inches, full margins. A very good, early impression of this scarce print.
We have found only one other impression at auction in past 30 years.
A cliché-verre, also known as a glass print, is made by placing photographic paper beneath a glass plate on which a design has been scratched through a coating of an opaque substance and then exposing it to light. The fluid lines achieved with cliché-verre prints are reminiscent of etched lines as well as ink drawings and paintings. Delteil 80; Melot 80.
