This original, limited edition etching, was realized by the esteemed American artist John E. Costigan, circa 1930. He is represented in the collections of the Metropolitan Museum, the Philips Memorial Gallery in Washington and the Brooklyn Museum, to name only a few of the many institutions that feature his work. This print, with its balanced composition and its loose style of figuration- deftly balances realism and abstraction- helps to explain his acclaim. This piece depicts a mother clutching her child in shaded woods, in a style recalling Theodore Rousseau's Barbizon prints. We have three more pieces from this series available. The entire suite of four can be purchased for $4475. It is signed by the artist bottom left. It is signed by the artist bottom right. The pieces are in the original portfolio and have never been framed. Excellent condition.
