WALT KUHN [1877-1949]. American painter. An ORIGINAL cooper etching plate of a female nude. The title is ALICE, which was included in the 1967 Kennedy Galleries exhibition of Walt Kuhn prints [#4] and was indicated that there were only from 1 to 6 prints ever pulled from this plate. Plate size 5 X 8 in. The image of an etching pulled from this plate is not included in this auction as it is in the collection of the Smithsonian American Art Museum, Washington DC. Very seldom does an original etching plate by an important artist ever reach the open market as they usually are in institutional collections. Provenance: Kuhn Estate. It is difficult to get a good scan of this and the picture showing is not very good. He did not etch his initials or signature into the plate, which was his normal practice. I don't think he ever etched his signature into any of his plates although he sometimes would etch initials, this was seldom. This is guaranteed to be an authentic Walt Kuhn plate without a time limit to the original purchaser. We will send a letter of guarantee and provenance to the buyer.
