« Frère vente en gros et sœur » gravure au crayon signée Fenyes Adolf

This is a vintage/antique dry point Etching by Prihoda Istvan (Hungarian 1891-1965) of the very emotive masterpiece ‘Brother and Sister' by Fenyes Adolf (Hungarian 1867-1946). Prihoda signs his creation in print at lower left. The creator of ‘Brothers and Sisters', Fenyes Adolf, has signed in pencil below the print at lower right. A like copy of the etching was auctioned in Budapest on Dec 12, 2009, Titled ‘Testverek' and attributed to Fenyes Adolf. Since the artists are somewhat contemporary to each other and both are displayed at the Hungarian National Museum, it seems more likely Prhorda was the etcher. Either way, a great collectorspiece!

The paper and ink are in excellent condition, with no stains, tears or issues. The sight size is 10” X 8 1/2”.
