Original etching by Louis Icart. Limited edition of 25. COA in pocket on the back. Frame is walnut. Double matted with bevelled edges. Perfect condition.

Unique, rare, bronze sculpture by Louis Icart, 1888-1950. “Le Chat qui Dort”. The cat that sleeps. Typical of his mildly erotic and amusing work. It is created by the lost wax technique. The piece has the title and signature and the foundry stamp. Foundry being “Edition Paris” In the centre of their seal is their logo. The title is on the front. The signature “Louis Icart” is bottom right side. Excellent work.  There is no edition number whatsoever so this a unique, one-off sculpture. I have a COA from Nathan Daniel Isen of Philadelphia, PA where he states that this is a “Unique proof, conceived before final edition” and in excellent condition.

Original etching by Louis Icart called Vitesse (Speed). “Copyright 1933 by L. Icart Sty. N.Y.” This is the real thing – not a recent reproduction. It has the embossed stamp of L. I. Paris bottom left corner in the margin. Signed “Louis Icart” in pencil lower right in the margin. Frame is wood with inside edge of gold. Single matt. Some bleaching due to light over the years but actual art is in excellent condition and colour. Could be re-matted to improve presentation.
