Baby Held before an Oval Mirror.

Drypoint, circa 1900. 400x280 mm; 15 3/4x11 1/4 inches, wide margins. Second state (of 2). Signed in pencil, lower right, within the plate. A superb, dark impression of this extremely scarce print, with strong burr and inky plate edges.

We have found only two other impressions of this drypoint at auction in the past 30 years. Breeskin 218.
