About the Item

Etching on laid paper Signed in plate lower right: A. Mathieu 1864 Published by Cadart & Luquet, Éditeurs, 79 Rue Richelieu, Paris With the blindstamp of the Société des Aquafortistes, lower margin In Les vieux ormes du champ du puits à Marzy (“The Old Elms of the Well Field at Marzy”), Auguste Mathieu depicts a tranquil rural landscape marked by the solemn grandeur of two ancient elm trees. Beneath their vast, timeworn branches, women and children pause to rest, while in the distance, a farmer guides his oxen along a sunlit path. The composition blends human presence and natural monumentality in perfect balance — an ode to the serene rhythms of provincial life. Mathieu’s etching demonstrates both technical mastery and poetic sensibility. His meticulous linework captures the intricate textures of bark, foliage, and ground, while his subtle modulation of light creates an atmosphere of pastoral intimacy. The scene evokes the enduring beauty of the French countryside, rendered with sincerity and restraint, in keeping with the spirit of the Société des Aquafortistes — whose mission was to reassert etching as a refined, expressive medium. Excellent impression on laid paper, with full margins. Very minor toning at edges, otherwise pristine. A member of the Société des Aquafortistes, Auguste Mathieu was among the circle of French etchers who, under the direction of Cadart & Luquet, revived the art of the original print during the Second Empire. His landscapes, often drawn from life, reflect a quiet realism imbued with warmth and sentiment. Les vieux ormes du champ du puits à Marzy stands as a graceful example of his ability to marry topographical truth with poetic expression.
