12: A SCARCE UNLISTED DOEL REED (1895-1985) AQUATINT

Doel Reed (1895 - 1985)
Unknown. (1934)
Numbered 4/50 in pencil lower left and signed by the artist in pencil lower right alongside the artist's blind stamp, a second signature and date of 1934 are part of the etching and found in lower left corner of the plate. .
This appears to be the first recorded appearance of this image on the market or in any public collection. While similar aquatint etching studies of nudes by Doel Reed have been cataloged, no examples of this image could be found.

Good complete condition with issues related to age and framing. The full untrimmed sheet is complete with deckle edged margins, two brown tape tabs remain at the upper right and left corners, the paper is evenly toned overall and there is a mat burn.
$500 - $1,000
