Beautiful, detailed etching by Anton Pieck from 1917, definitely one of his graphic highlights.
During his stay in the Amersfoort army barracks – in 1916 – Pieck often worked in the Sint-Joriskerk in bad weather. For example, he made several drawings in the surgeon's room. This was once where the guild of surgeons, doctors, met. When Pieck later converted the drawing into an etching, he put the copper plate in the acid bath twice: first he etched the church window itself, then the rest of the image. Compared to the preliminary study, he zoomed in further on the window in the etching, which created a powerful, special composition.
Etching on handmade paper, signed in pencil. In gold-coloured wooden frame, behind glass and with luxurious passe-partout. In very good condition. Literature: Anton Pieck: His life, his work (van Eysselsteijn, Vogelesang), page 44.
Dimensions: 55cm x 44cm (incl. frame), 34cm x 21cm (inside passe-partout)

When purchasing, a work of art can always be picked up, but by appointment, in Diemen (near Amsterdam, a few minutes from the A10 ring road). The collection period is very long; you can possibly pick up the work weeks or even months later and, if possible, combine it with a visit to (the) Amsterdam area for other matters. In that case you will, of course, save any shipping costs.
