Torment
Arthur B. Davies (1862-1928), Torment, soft ground etching with aquatint and roulette, 1919-20, signed with the estate stamp lower right, and signed by the printer Frank A. Nankivell (and inscribed “Printer”) lower left. Reference: Czestochowski 102, fourth state (of 4). In generally good condition apart from light staining toward the top of the image, and light staining at the top margin edge, a crease in the right margin. With margins, 7 13/16 x 11 7/8, the sheet 9 3/8 x 13 5/8 inches.
A fine impression.Printed on thin laid paper with the watermark Vassier.
Czestochowski notes that this print was never published by Davies. Impressions were printed in 1929 by Nankivell, and we presume that this is one of those impressions.
