EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "Lotz, 1900" showcases the artistic genius of Auguste Louis Lepere, a prominent figure in the late 19th-century wood engraving revival in France. However, Lepere's talent extended beyond this medium as he was also an accomplished painter known for his use of pastels to create studies directly from nature. In this particular study, we are presented with a mesmerizing scene of a woman engrossed in her sewing. The delicate strokes and soft colors employed by Lepere bring out the beauty and tranquility of the moment. The attention to detail is remarkable; every thread and stitch seems to come alive under his skilled hand. What adds another layer of significance to this artwork is its inscription dedicated to Lotz-Brissonneau, an artist friend of Lepere's. It serves as a testament to their deep connection and mutual admiration for each other's work. Interestingly, it was Lotz-Brissonneau who authored the catalogue raisonne (a comprehensive listing) of Leperes graphic works in 1905. Preserved by The Cleveland Museum of Art, this piece stands as a testament to both Leperes mastery over various art forms and his lasting impact on the creative landscape during that era. As we gaze upon this exquisite image captured through time by Heritage Art/Heritage Images, we cannot help but be transported back into history where craftsmanship met friendship in perfect harmony.
