JULES PASCIN “Pierre MacOrlan” Mezzotint
An original print of Pierre MacOrlan by artist Jules Pascin. Handwritten at the bottom is “épreuve unique”, meaning “single test” likely indicating the nature of the mezzoprint medium as well as Pascin’s experimentation with it. Despite the annotation, it is unlikely to be a sole impression, having been reproduced in a posthumous volume of Pascin restrikes titled "Tombeau de Pascin".
About the Artist:
Jules Pascin (1885-1930) was a French Expressionist painter born in Bulgaria to a Sephardic Jewish family. He moved to Paris in 1905 and became a part of the surge of turn of the century artists flocking to the city. He was featured in many successful exhibitions and achieved commercial success, without the critical acclaim he was longing for. He lived in the United States from 1914-1920 to avoid World War I. He became an American citizen, but returned to Paris after the war. Pascin was similar to Henri de Toulouse-Lautrec in that he drew inspiration from his surroundings and used his friends and associates as subjects.

About the Artist:
Dame Barbara Hepworth was born on January 10th, 1903 in Wakefield, West Riding of Yorkshire, the eldest daughter to a middle class family. Proficient in music and the arts, Hepworth won a scholarship to study at the Leeds School of Art in 1920, where she met Henry Moore, whom she would befriend and maintain a friendly rivalry throughout their professional careers. Despite the isolation of working in a male-dominated environment, Hepworth won a second scholarship to attend the Royal College of Art in 1921 and studied there until her graduation in 1924. After graduation, Hepworth traveled to Italy and learned how to carve marble from sculptor Giovanni Ardini, marrying fellow sculptor John Skeaping and having her first child before moving back to London. Hepworth fell in love with painter Ben Nicholson, who she would marry in 1938, while becoming highly interested in abstraction and she later traced to Paris to visit the studios of Pablo Picasso, Jean Arp, and Constantin Brancusi. The breakout of World War II brought new challenges to Hepworth, who maintained her career while also raising triplets. In 1939, Hepworth and her family moved to St. Ives in Cornwall, where she would live the rest of her life. Hepworth continued working and, despite her ambivalence toward international market recognition, she eventually established gallery relationships in the United States in the 1950s before expanding her studio space in 1960. Working on large scale commissions, Hepworth began experimenting with lithography in her later work and received a Commander of the Most Excellent Order of the British Empire in 1958, followed by a Dame Commander of the Most Excellent Order of the British Empire in 1965. Hepworth remained working until her death at the hands of an accidental fire in her studio in 1975 at the age of 72. Her studio and home have since become the Barbara Hepworth Museum and her work has been shown throughout the world, including major retrospectives and exhibitions at the Tate and the Heide Museum of Modern Art.

Crafted in 1970, this vintage “Bird Bottle” vase by Martz Pottery adds a wonderful piece of postmodern pottery to the tabletop décor. Glazed in white with earthy, washy tones wrapping around the body of the vase, this vase features two mouths that allow for a variety of floral arrangements.
About the Designer:
Martz Pottery was created by husband and wife team Gordon and Jane Martz. They met while studying ceramics at Alfred University, married upon graduation, and moved to Jane’s hometown. Jane’s family owned Marshall Studios, a company that produced hand painted lampshades. As the company grew, their production expanded to creating turned wood lamp bases as well. Marshall Studios then changed generations to Jane’s parents, and the young artists were encouraged to contribute their talents. They devised a way to mass produce these pottery bases while still having handmade aesthetic and finishes. One of their lamps, Martz No. 101, was recognized by Edgar Kaufmann, Jr. who worked with the Museum of Modern Art. The lamp was selected to appear at the MoMA for their 1953 Good Design exhibit, which launched Marshall Studios and Martz Pottery’s popularity and sales. Once the Modernism trend declined, the company was sold and later closed.
