This etching, from Jim Dine’s Eight Little Nude series of 1982, was published by Pace Editions, New York, in an edition of 30 signed, numbered and dated by the artist. It is a softground etching with drypoint and aquatint in colours, printed on BFK Rives. Dine’s reputation as one of the preeminent American printmakers of the post-war period was established in the early 1960s and he has produced an astonishing body of graphic work up to the present day, often working with master printmakers such as Ken Tyler in Los Angeles and New York, Kurt Zein in Vienna and particularly the legendary Aldo Crommelynck, the printer of Matisse and Picasso, at whose Paris studio Dine made over 100 editions.
