Brangwyn (Frank, 1867-1956). L'Ombre de la Croix, 1931, 73 etchings, a complete set of artist's proofs, on cream Japan paper, 11 signed and one initialled in pencil to lower margin, all but one with pencilled page number to lower margin, all with wide margins, sheet sizes 393 x 280 mm and smaller, all but one tipped (top corners only) into individual window mounts, the whole contained in two near contemporary handmade cardboard slipcases (some wear), each with ink manuscript labels on spine (Quantity: 1) Provenance: From the Brangwyn family estate in Belgium. Apparently this was Brangwyn's own personal copy for proof checking and annotating with the relevant page numbers. In 1931 Brangwyn produced 73 etchings for the book L’Ombre de la Croix (The Shadow of the Cross) by Jérôme & Jean Tharaud. The book described the lives of Jewish people in contemporary Europe, with many illustrations based around the town of Belz in Poland. Brangwyn seems to have etched a majority of the plates from photographs.
