Lola De Valence
Lola De Valence is a black and white etching realized by Edouard Manet (1832-1883) in 1862.
Image dimensions: 18x26 cm.
Etching and aquatint, 6th state, the first to be published, with informations on realization, printing and publication (Société des Aquafortistes).
Fine impression with full margins, in very good conditions.
Signed on the lower left.
According to Harris, there were two different 1862/63 printings of this plate, this one for the Société des Aquafortistes. "Imp. Delâtre, rue Saint-Jacques, 363, Paris," appears to the left of the printed verse, "Paris, Publié par A CADART & LUQUET, Editeurs, 79 Rue Richelieu" appears in the lower right, just below the image. Number "67" appears in the upper right and refers to this as Plate 67 of Eaux-Fortes Modernes, 2nd year, 2nd issue. (The second printing lacks the words"Ed.Manet sculpt.", which is present in this one). The subject of this print by Manet is Lola Melea who was a principal dancer with the Royal Ballet of Madrid. The Ballet appeared in Paris in 1862 at the Hippodrome theatre and Manet asked the dance troupe to pose for him. It follows Manet's interest for the Spanish culture and costumes, as well as for the style of Francisco Goya. He also executed an oil painting of the same subject as well as a lithographic sheet music cover. The painting is now at Musée d'Orsay in Paris.
Ref. Harris 33 (vi/VIII), Guérin 23, Fisher 25.
