Venus
Arthur B. Davies (1862-1928), Venus (alternative title: Spindrift), mezzotint, 1927, with the estate stamp lower right, signed in pencil by Frank A. Nankivell lower left and inscribed “Printer”. Reference: Czestochowski 218, first state (of 2), edition unspecified, total printing unknown. In good condition apart from light fox marks in margins, with margins, printed on laid paper with a bunch of grapes (?) watermark, 9 15/16 x 5 15/16, the sheet 13 ½ x 8 ¾ inches.
A very good impression of this rarely encountered print; no impressions signed by Davies are known.
