Emil Orlik (1870-1932), Portrait of Slevogt, etching, 1921, signed in pencil and numbered (27/100) [also signed and dated in the plate], from the presumed edition of 100. In very good condition, 3 5/8 x 3 3/4, the sheet 12 x 10 1/4 inches.

A very good impression, on ivory laid paper.

Max Slevogt (1866-1932), a friend of Orlik, was a leading German artist, printmaker, and illustrator.

The definitive source of information on Orlik, with pictures of his prints (some for sale) and an extensive biography,  is of course the comprehensive  website produced by Allan Wolman and Anne Schneider (www.orlikprints.com).
