The Little Gypsies (Les petits gitanos)

1862
19th century

Édouard Manet, French, (1832–1883)

Object Type: print
Medium and Support: Etching on laid paper from bound volume
State: Only state
Series: from Manet (Edmond Bazire)
Edition: Trial proofs; only trial proofs were made, and only three brown impressions are known to exist. From Edmond Bazire’s one-volume Manet (Paris: A. Quantin, 1884), which includes Emile Zola’s Edouard Manet, étude biographique et critique (1867) and Charles Cros’s Le Fleuve. Per Fisher (Manet, 1985, p. 23): “The prints in this volume were extra-illustrated, or bound in. The book was owned at one time by Avery who acquired many of his rarest Manets from George A. Lucas (1824–1909). Lucas was assisted by the major collector of Manet, Henri Guérard (1846–1897) whose association with Manet began in the 1870s. Guérard also printed editions from the plates before Manet's death & shortly afterward. Major American holdings—Avery & Lucas—derive essentially from Guérard.”
Marks: Inscribed in ink by Manet, lower right: “les petits Gitanos”
Marks: Watermark: Double florets
Provenance / Collectors' Marks: Samuel Putnam Avery (Lugt 41)
Bibliography: Marcel Guérin 20; Moreau-Nelaton 61; Harris 17; Fisher, The Prints of Edouard Manet, cat. no. 1, p. 31; for information on the portraits see Heinrich Schwarz, “Two Unknown Portraits of Manet,” Gazette des Beaux-Arts 53 (April 1959); per Fisher (“Manet” 1985, p. 23): “The prints in this volume were extra-illustrated, or bound in. The book was owned at one time by Avery who acquired many of his rarest Manets from George A. Lucas (1824-1909). Lucas was assisted by the major collector of Manet, Henri Guérard (1846-1897) whose association with Manet began in the 1870s. Guérard also printed editions from the plates before Manet’s death and shortly afterward. Major American holdings—Avery & Lucas—derive essentially from Guérard.”
