CONEY ISLAND BEACH #1
Reginald Marsh (1898-1954)
(SASOWSKY 191)
Etching, 1939, on J Whatman laid paper, signed, dated, titled and inscribed in pencil, from the edition of 17
Plate 9 7/8 x 12 inches; 251 x 305 mm
Sheet 11 1/8 x 14 inches; 283 x 356 mm
A fine impression of this rather rarely seen print.
Marsh routinely inscribed prints with the notation “ed. 40”; this was perhaps a hoped-for edition size, but the actual “edition” was 17 – Marsh generally made prints as they were ordered.
