All auctions / Miscellaneous / Richard Ranft (1862-1931) - Paysage avec pont et personnages (D'apres Corot)


Signed on the plate at the bottom The etching is presented framed Etching size: 38 x 46 cm. Plate size: 44 x 59 cm. Frame size: 77 x 92 cm. In good condition Richard Ranft (1862-1931) arrived in Paris from his native Switzerland already partially trained as an artist. He furthered his education with Gustave Courbet, but quickly began to find work. Ranft was multifaceted. He illustrated a number of books, which is not surprising since he was also a writer. Thanks to his training he was also an accomplished painter, and created interpretative color aquatints, largely after 18th and 19th century painters. He is today mostly remembered for his colorful original aquatints, which are compositionally diverse, and very bright. It is unclear how many of these he created, but probably no more than a few dozen. They were generally printed in editions of 50, published by Charles Hessèle, and today have become quite scarce.
