(Spanish, 1746–1828)
Group of six plates from Bordeaux, 1824-1828, edition of 150, final state, some embossed with "P.H.", printed by Emiliano Sorini, 1971, etchings/aquatints on buff paper, plate 7-1/2 x 4-7/8 in. sheet 11-3/8 x 8 in.; matching frames, 15-1/2 x 13 in.
Note:
A small posthumous edition on laid paper was printed in 1859 for John Savile Lumley at the Calcografiá, Madrid. Colnaghi, London acquired the plates in 1926 at which time three impressions of each subject were made. The plates were acquired by Philip Hofer, who had Emiliano Sorini print this edition in 1971. His embossed collector’s stamp appears in the lower right corner of each print. Very few of these were printed in the artist's lifetime.
