"The early eighteenth century saw an exceptionally active international trade in ancient coins and antiquities and the formation of a number of significant collections assembled by aristocratic amateurs, scholarly gentlemen and cunning dealers throughout Europe. The centre of the antiquities trade was Rome, teeming with dealers who purchased the many coins, gems and other objects found daily in excavations in the city or in the fields of the Roman campagna. In turn, the dealers sold to the local Roman aristocracy, to learned collectors and to the many visitors to the Eternal City on the Grand Tour. There were also forgers in Rome, skilful craftsmen who worked with less than scrupulous dealers to sell their copies of ancient coins as genuine to unsuspecting collectors."

Otto Bacher’s “Schwabelweiss” Etching Schwabelweiss, 1879. Andrew, Danube set #14. Signed with his monogram, titled, and dated in the plate. Bacher left Cleveland for studies in Munich in 1878, and this etching represents his happy experience in Germany as a youth tramping along the Danube River from one small town to another. The trip resulted in 27 etchings in his Danube Set. After his studies in Munich, Bacher went with Frank Duveneck’s “boys” to Venice in 1880 where he fell under the spell of Whistler. This etching is printed on satin, a delicate process much-loved in the 1880s for the glistening effect. This is in beautiful condition. Plate signed etching dated Sept 1879 and Plate-mark measures 9 by 3 inches. Limited edition (general considered by most professional American prints Dealers to be 500 approximate) NOT number, that practice was not used till 1940’s so do not ask.
