Samaritan Woman in Jacob's Well is an amazing black and white héliogravure on cream-colored paper, realized around the 20's by the Austrian Marquis Franz Von Bayros ( Zagreb, 1866 – Vienna, 1924), also known with the pseudonym of Choisy Le Conin.
Signed on plate on lower right corner.
This modern original print represents a woman lowered with a rope into a well to collect water and keep it in a jar. It seems a quotation of the myth of divine water, written by the disciple John. Represented with an incredible Nouveau style, demonstrating the masterful draftsmanship, and graphic skills.
In perfect conditions, including a silver-painted frame, this is an unmissable artwork for your private erotic collection or your sophisticated suite.
