Description
JACQUES CALLOT
Les Gueux.
Complete set of 25 etchings, 1622. Each approximately 137x91 mm; 5½x3⅝ inches, wide margins. Each in the first state (of 2), before the numbers in the plates. Several sheets with the Cross of Lorraine watermark (Lieure 29). Superb, richly-inked impressions with very strong contrasts, extremely scarce as a complete set.
We have found only 10 other complete sets at auction in the past 30 years and only a few in the scarce first state.
Provenance: Charles-Basile Morel, Nancy, with the ink stamp on two sheets (Lugt 2867); and Ottokar Mascha, Vienna, with the ink stamp on one sheet (Lugt 1904). Lieure 479-503.
