RARE Vtg Original “Miyojima” Etching By Rudolf Seiler (1898-1982) Framed

Description: This listing is for a RARE vintage Original “Miyojima” Etching By listed artist Rudolf Seiler (1898-1982). It is a lovely piece, depicting a peaceful lake scene. In the water is a temple gate & 2 pillars line a path beside the shore. It is hand signed and titled in the bottom corners. This is one of 2 versions of the work, there was also a colored version produced. I believe this black & white series was only produced in an edition of 24. It is a great piece for collectors, display / decor, gifting, & more. It is in good condition, with no major damage to the piece. The frame has some minimal wear, as is usual, but it gives a pleasing patina. I believe the frame is the original chosen by the artist. The paper is in good shape, with no visible fading to the work. I have not removed it from the frame at all, to avoid any damage. The frame has no glass, I believe it did not originally have any. According to the internet; “Rudolf Seiler (1898-1982) was Willy's older brother by five years. During the period in which Rudolf had a badly injured hand, his signature looks more like "A. Seiler" than "R. Seiler," causing many people, myself included, to erroneously attribute some of his etchings to either Willy or Anita. Whereas Willy stayed "Western," Rudolf adopted a distinctly Japanese style. By 1950, he had begun to make etchings, producing roughly 3-4 etchings a year. Dealers and collectors should also note that the paper used for Rudolf's etchings is also different than that used for Willy's etchings.” Thank you for your consideration, reasonable offers always considered. Comes as shown, please see photos for details and measurements. Comes packed with care insured in shipment.
