MUNCH, Edvard
Alter Mann (1905), photogravure of the woodcut, published in 1954 for Sommernacht Collection, by Feldafing OBB.
Description
Printmaking was an essential component of Munch's art following his introduction to the graphic media in 1894. With the capacity to produce multiple works from a single plate, stone, or woodblock, printmaking served to expand the accessibility of the artist’s themes to the general public and to provide income.
It also enabled him to experiment with his imagery: by altering color, line, texture, and composition, Munch drastically changed the appearance and emotional impact of a given subject. Thus a woman kissing a man could appear amorous in one print, predatory in another; a sick child could seem feverish in one impression, ashen in the next.
The photogravure is in near fine condition and without fading or spotting to paper. Framed and glazed with acid free mount. Image, 15.5x10.0cm; external, 42.5x31.5cm.
