The Address Card of Rochoux, a Printseller
1856
Charles Meryon's etching "The Address Card of Rochoux, a Printseller" is a small but meticulously detailed work that exemplifies the artist's mastery of the medium. The print serves as a functional business card while simultaneously demonstrating Meryon's technical virtuosity through its intricate linework and atmospheric qualities. Created in the 19th century, this work reflects both the practical commercial purposes of printmaking and the artistic ambitions that elevated etching to a fine art form during this period.
