Etching, Old New Orleans, "Pirates Alley"
$255
An original etching by a widely famous New Orleans artist, Eugene E. Loving, of the scene that almost all visitors to the French Quarter would know: walking from Jackson Square, next to St Louis Cathedral, to Royal Street, and after that past Pat O'Briens and Preservation Hall onto Bourbon Street. The etching is called "Pirates Alley - Old New Orleans", and is from around 1950(?). Loving worked in New Orleans from the 1930s until his death in 1971.
Back story and provenance: I lived in New Orleans off and on from 1974 to 1981, and my grandparents lived there from the 1940s until their deaths in the 1990s and 2000s. When we bought our first house in New Orleans in 1978, my grandmother gifted me 6 x etchings by Eugene Loving to "cover the walls", in her words. I have kept these and displayed them in different houses since, but now may be time to let other people enjoy them. This is just one of them, I will offer the others and the group for sale also, there is a group picture of all 6 attached.
This etching is in the original frame from the 1950s, signed as an edition of 100 by the artist, and ready to hang on the wall. Etching size larger than the others in the 6 piece collection, and is 160mm x 225mm, and the frame size is 310mm x 425mm.
For local pickup or by agreed postal cost.
