Description
Louis Orr (American, 1879-1961), Two Views
the first: an unknown structure, etching, pencil signed at lower right; the second: a reproduction print after an original print, with printed signature; unframed.
Sheet size 14 3/4 x 13 1/4 in. (the first)
Louis Orr is best known for his remarkably detailed and highly collectible etchings that illustrate historic landmarks throughout North Carolina. Born in Connecticut and spending much of his formative years in Paris, people fervently began collecting Orr’s work in both countries in the early 20th century. Orr was the first American artist to have work in the permanent collection of the Louvre Museum, and his were also the first etchings to ever join the Louvre’s collection.
From the Estate of the late John L. and Ann Sanders, Chapel Hill, North Carolina
