This is an absolutely beautiful mezzotint done by Leopold Graf von Kalckreuth for the German Art Nouveau magazine PAN.
This picture is an original graphic from the magazine that was published from 1895 to 1900 and was run in editions from 1200 to 1600 copies. I have seen this one called “Homecoming Ninnenee’ and Muhme”.
The outside of the frame measures 15”x 17 1/2“. The inside window of the mat is 8 1/4“ x 10“. The plate impression measures 9 1/4“ x 5 1/2“.
This incredibly rare image is so warm and tender reflecting the love of a senior member of the family for a new wee babe.
An excellent gift for an auntie or a grandmom. It is presently without glass which will make it cheaper to ship. It will need a new matte, the one on it is a bit grimy. Your framer will make it right as rain.
