Item Overview

Description

Edmund H. Garrett (1853-1929) A well known nineteenth century American painter, etcher and illustrator, studied art at the Academie Julien in Paris under Jean Paul Laurens, Boulanger and Lefebvre. After residing in France for a period of about five years he returned to America and established a successful studio in Boston. During the last two decades of the nineteenth century, Edmund Garrett's paintings and etchings were widely exhibited throughout the United States and in France at the Paris Salon. Garrett's first original prints were in the medium of wood engraving. Under the advice of Robert Swain Gifford (1840-1905), he created his first etching in 1879. Specializing in both architectural views and landscapes, Edmund Henry Garrett's ensuing etchings dealt mainly with areas around Boston. Near Mattakeesett is typical of his fine handling of perspective, light and shade and other pictorial qualities. Original etching, unsigned, "Near Mattakeesett", image approx. 4-7/8 x 8-3/4 plus margins. One light foxing spot well away from image. Appears to have been suntoned [evenly] at some time because the image and margin area well outside of plate mark is a little darker. Perhaps this was matted at some time.
