Adrien de Witte (illustrator). Adrien de Witte (1850-1935), graveur belge de l'école liégeoise, est un maître de l'eau-forte intimiste dont l'oeuvre se distingue par la finesse du trait, la justesse des modelés et l'attention portée aux figures modestes et aux détails du quotidien. Formé à l'Académie de Liège, professeur puis directeur de l'institution, il grave dès les années 1870 des études de figures et d'animaux avec une précision psychologique et une économie de moyens qui rappellent les meilleurs graveurs du XIXe siècle. L'ensemble réunit trois eaux-fortes originales, tirées sur grand papier vergé filigrané à la couronne (47,5 x 34,5 cm), où figurent trois sujets distincts : Le mouton, l'âne et le soldat (juxtaposés, 13 x 10,5 cm), Le vieil homme assis au haut-de-forme et à la canne (12,5 x 8,5 cm, signée et datée 1876), et Femme occupée à coudre (10,5 x 7 cm, signée et datée 1876). Ces compositions, tirées sur des feuilles de belle marge, capturent avec une sensibilité admirable l'animal, le vieillard et la femme au travail, dans un style réaliste et nuancé qui fait la signature de Witte à ses débuts. Le papier a des traces fongiques dans la marge mais elles sont loin de la gouttière et donc de la partie imprimée. ¶ Adrien de Witte (1850-1935), Belgian engraver of the Liège school, is a master of intimate etching whose work is distinguished by fineness of line, accuracy of modeling, and attention to modest figures and everyday details. Trained at the Liège Academy, then professor and director of the institution, he engraved from the 1870s studies of figures and animals with psychological precision and economy of means reminiscent of the best 19th-century engravers. The set brings together three original etchings, printed on large watermarked laid paper with crown (47.5 x 34.5 cm), featuring three distinct subjects: The sheep, donkey and soldier (juxtaposed, 13 x 10.5 cm), The old man seated with top hat and cane (12.5 x 8.5 cm, signed and dated 1876), and Woman busy sewing (10.5 x 7 cm, signed and dated 1876). These compositions, printed on fine margin sheets, capture with admirable sensitivity the animal, old man, and woman at work, in a realistic and nuanced style that marks Witte's early signature. The paper has fungal traces in the margin but they are far from the gutter and therefore from the printed area.
