Jacques Villon Etchings--1907-1907
This website includes work selected from the 353 etchings, lithographs and paintings on paper, by Jacques Villon, (1875-1963-French) in the collection of Jack Leissring. Villon, born Gaston Duchamp, was the premier 'painter-engraver' of the 20th Century, receiving all of the important French and European awards and honors. He was the eldest brother of Raymond Duchamp-Villon, the sculptor and of Marcel and Suzanne Duchamp, painters. On this page are shown a series of etchings known as the "Minne" series (modeled by Renee, daughter of a family friend). The special significance of the work depicted here lies in their rarity--we have very rare proof copies of the entire Minne series, as well as rare artist's proofs of other work of this period.
