EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a beautiful capital letter K set against a serene water background adorned with fish and water irises. Created in 1880 by Robert John Welch (1859-1936), or attributed to him, this engraving measures 19.5 x 14.5 cm and is part of a private collection. The artwork originates from "Alphabets from the Artistic Education Library" by Jules-Auguste Habert-Dys (1850-1930), specifically the first series No. 4 published by Librairie de l'Art, J. Rouam in Paris. The woodcuts for this piece were done by Leonce Petit (1839-1884). Intricately designed, the capital letter K stands out amidst an aquatic backdrop filled with swimming fish and vibrant water iris flowers. This image was likely used as an alphabet primer or abecedary for educational purposes. The engraving exudes both decoration and education, making it an ornate yet informative piece of art. Its floral elements add a touch of elegance while representing nature's beauty. Originating from France during the late nineteenth century, this enchanting print captures the essence of European artistic style at that time.
