755 Prior Ave N #235C, St Paul, MN, US, United States
Anders Zorn (Swedish, 1860-1920) was an internationally renowned artist, finding success as a painter, sculptor, and etching artist. His portraiture was extensive, covering a range of subjects from the social elite, such as U.S. Presidents Grover Cleveland, William H. Taft, and Theodore Roosevelt, to farmers. His nude portraits of young, unmarried women from Dalarna gave rise to the terms "Zornkulla" or "dalkulla" to describe them. The present lots represent a range of etchings executed throughout his life from 1884-1919, most coming from a single collection.
