Not a regular lithograph but hand-colored in with unique accents. The pochoir was executed under Henri Matisse's authorization and published by Albert Morance (Paris) making each piece unique and one of a kind. No two were ever alike! Condition Colors of pochoir remain fresh and vibrant for a work a century old. Never exposed to sunlight before. With full margins as shown. Yellowing of paper consistent with age. Paper has severe foxing especially in the margins which could be covered by matting. The foxing is a notable problem with all Albert Morance editions which is attributed to the paper the publisher used. Foxing possible extends into image but is not noticeable. It almost seem as if the color paint has preserved the paper. We suggest to have this framed with an acid-free matting and glass with a UV-filter. Medium Pochoir (French: “stencil”), as distinguished from ordinary stenciling, is a highly refined technique of making fine limited editions of lithographic stencil prints after which they are hand-painted and colored in. These pochoirs are extremely rare as the edition size was always limited due to the work involved. It was a very labor intensive and expensive technique, which produced an image that is often indistinguishable from the artist's hand painted original. The black, or key line, of each print is pulled on a lithographic press. The image is then cut into a stencil made from a fine sheet of metal and gouache or watercolor is applied by hand using a variety of different brushes. A separate stencil is required for each color, sometimes up to twenty being used. ShippingPlease allow 2-4 business days to securely package and ship your item.
