JAN FRANS CANTRE
Belgian, (1886-1931)

Woodcut, 1922, edition 32. 14 1/4 x 13 in. Signed in the block. Signed, titled and dated in pencil. This is a fine impression printed on thin Japanese paper. The margins are wide and the condition is very good apart from a soft wrinkle here and there. This large work is exemplary of Belgian expressionist printmaking during the 1920s. Cantre studied in Gent (1897-1905) and was a founding member of of l'Association des Xylographes Belges. His work is in many print cabinets througout western Europe. (He is the older brother of Jozef Cantre.)      SOLD
