• Lot n° 10 Jacques Joseph Tissot (1836-1902) "Le Banc de Jardin," 1883 Mezzotint in warm black ink on paper Edition: From the total edition of approximately 500 impressions in all three states, of which this is a first state (of three), before the addition of the title As is usual for this state, the impression is unsigned except for the artist's signature in the plate at lower left: J.J. Tissot 15" H x 21" W Literature: Wentworth 75 i/iii Other Notes: According to Michael Wentworth, Tissot presumably based this mezzotint on his painting of the same name that was on view in Paris at the time, first at the Palais de I'Industrie in 1883, and then at the Galerie Sedelmeyer in 1885. That painting of circa 1882 was unlocated when Wentworth published his catalogue raisonné of the artist's printed works in 1978. Since then, however, the painting has resurfaced. It was sold by Christie's New York in November of 1999 for nearly $200,000. Overall good appearance. With margins. The paper slightly toned and with some very pale and unobtrusive foxing in the upper margin. Not examined out of the frame. Framed under glass: 29.5" H x 35.5" W x 1.75" D
