This lovely vintage watercolor, ink on silk dates back to the 1930’s/1940’s time frame. Signed in pencil on the lower right side, this art piece measures 9 1/2 x 11 1/2 inch framed size, with the etching being 7 1/2 x 9 3/4 inches.
The etching depicts a centuries old several stories stone house with a female figure in the foreground wearing a long dress, apron, and her head covered by a kerchief. Two figures in similar dress but wearing country peasant style hats can be seen in the background. Earth tone colors predominate in brown, cream, black, and white shades.
Below the etching are three penciled entries. The artist signature, H. Leisch, is on the right hand side. The center has a written name, Robert Holz, which we believe to be the title of the stone house etching, and the left hand side has what appears to be the word, Road accompanied by a word we can not decipher, which is most likely the location of this stone house.
The plastic frame has a gold antique marbled affect with black edges, and is in very good vintage condition, along with the glass covered print. We do note, and our pictures show, that there is a crease in the paper backing which most likely occurred before framing. There is also some age related browning on the silk fabric, but this is part of its 70 year old history. On the backside is the printed message, Original Etching, Made In Austria. |
