Georges Grellet sig etching Lady with Dog Boudoir Grellet   Boudoir mirror %%alt5%%
A Signed Limited Edition Etching, published and copyright by l'Estampe Moderne, Paris, embossed with the 'EM'seal of l'Estampe Moderne
ARTIST: Georges Grellet (1869-1959)
SUBJECT: A fashionable and elegant young lady,
glancing from a mirror at her dog
tugging on her shawl.
DATE: 1925

Francois Joseph Georges Grellet was born on October 4th, 1869 in the city of Tours located in the Loire Valley of France.

Grellet entered Boudoir in its late period. His prints were widely distributed from 1923 to 1932. All of Grellet's etchings were printed on high quality rag papers. We never see a Grellet that included an edition notation, therefore we might assume from the state of the market in the twenties that roughly 350 copies were run from each plate. Apparently, Grellet worked in conjunction with the Paris distributorship of l'Estampe Moderne. Each of his etchings bear a dated copyright declaration along their upper image edge. Before each picture was distributed, the lower margin of the sheet was embossed with the 'E M' seal of the l' Estampe Moderne. Most of the time we find solitary reference numbers written in the lower left margin. They really don't follow any discernible pattern because they correspond to the private numbering systems of different retailers.

In 'Boudoir Art' we read: 'Georges Grellet is a major Boudoir artist for several sound reasons. First, he was definitely a prominent and prolific force in the market for decorative French etchings. Also his images typify both the spirit and style of the Boudoir in their composition. He presents the epitome of the progressive twenties woman. His ladies are inquisitive, adventurous and hungry to squeeze the juice out of life, and yet they are deep and proud as well. There's a charming hesitancy behind their smouldering allure'
