Lot description

Lyman Byxbe (Nebraska/colorado, 1886-1980) Two prints, each signed by Lyman Byxbe in pencil lower right and titled in pencil lower left. Both are pictured in The Prints of Lyman Byxbe (1886-1980): A Catalog Raisonne by Robert L. Crump. 1. Junipers, circa 1940, Crump # 305, this image illustrated the cover of the October 1940 edition of the International Journal of Religious Education. Image measures 3 x 4.75 with a framed size of 12.5 x 13.25 inches. 2. Longs Peak from Trail Ridge. Crump #417, circa 1949. Image measures 6.75 x 5.25 with a framed size of 14.75x 12.75 inches. Lyman Byxbe was an artist as well as something of an etching technician who, unlike most artists, prepared his own copper plates and printed much of his work himself. He was also something of a showman who welcomed visitors in his studio to watch him inking plates and pulling prints. He was deeply invested in the technical side of etching and became well-known for careful line work and the tonal control of his aquatints. Measurements are included in the description.
