Rudolf Kalvach
(Vienna 1883-1932 Kosmonosy, Czechoslovak Republic)
"Triester Hafenleben VIII", 1907/08, woodcut on thin paper, the left upper corner with a fragment of an ornamental pencil drawing, nearly sheet sized print, sheet size 22.3 x 18 cm, (RAC)
A vivid print that renders the fine lines especially of the cordage with remarkable clarity. The traces of colour in the sky slightly visible on the front are probably are due to the printing process and were are probably deliberately used as a design element.
