This exceptional etching and aquatint is by Antoni Tapies. There were a number of editions of this etching. It was included in “Paroles Peintes IV published in Paris: Éditions O. Lazar-Vernet, 1970. There were approximately 258 published in this manner, some signed, some unsigned on varying papers. This particular etching is not from those editions. I do not know the publisher of this edition. This particular print is on a half sheet BFK Rives, signed in the lower right and numbered in Roman numerals XXIII/XXX or 23 of 30 in the lower left, both in pencil. The print is in very good condition with minor flaws. There are two 1.5 x 1 inch faint rubbings on the front of the sheet with very faint tape residue approximately 1.25 inches from the top edge of the sheet. Because the margins are very large, these areas are at least 2 inches from the image. Please see pictures. See less
