Christ en Croix (original French title)
Embossed composition printed in brown on leather.
While the artist often printed with carved gypsum blocks, this was likely printed from a woodcut, so as to be able to apply the desired pressure to obtain this embossed surface.
Reference: likely one of seven belt motifs mentioned under BN-IFF 16, possibly 17.
From a small edition (we’ve seen two).
Image: 1 ¼ x 7 inches.
Indicated below is the size of the leather strip on which the motif is printed.
