Millet “Le Printemps†EtchingMillet “Le-Printemps "Etching After the work of Millet and engraved by Piquet was published in “Souvenirs De Barbizon†in the late 19th century in Paris. The plate signed work measure 4.50 by 3.50 inches approximate (plate mark) and in good condition. This original etching was published by France’s first important publisher of the etching revival. In 1862 Cadart founded the Societe des aqua-Fortistes. Until its demise in 1867 it was responsible for publishing some of the greatest French art from this important decade. Around 1870 Cadart (along with Luquet) reopened his publishing house and continued to commission original etchings from such masters as Jongkind, Bracquemond, Manet, Ribot and many others. Almost all of the fine etchings published by Cadart were printed by Auguste Delatre.
