    Mar. 12, 2025

    Martin Lewis, Chance Meeting, 1940 - 1941

    Est: $5,000 - $7,000

    Martin Lewis (1881 - 1962) Chance Meeting, 1940 - 1941 drypoint on laid paper, edition of approximately 105 signed in the plate lower left: ML signed lower right: Martin Lewis - this print was commissioned by the Society of American Etchers, which was founded in 1916. The original name of the association was the Brooklyn Society of Etchers. today, it is known as the Society of American Graphic Artists (SAGA). although the record book records an edition of 100, the print was a presentation print to the members of the Society of American Etchers. its membership in the late 1930's was around 275 and each member received the presentation print. Chance Meeting is one of Martin Lewis's most psychologically intricate images, drawing the viewer into a scene charged with unresolved tension. Though the man casually thrusts his hands into his pockets and the woman leans on a newsstand, their intense gazes and the exaggerated curves of their bodies hint at a deep, unspoken attraction. In the background, another couple, seemingly further along in their courtship, offers a possible glimpse into what may follow. The stark lighting, dramatic shadows, and open-ended narrative reflect the unmistakable influence of film noir on Lewis's work.

    LEWIS, Martin (1881-1962). New York Harbor Under the Manhattan Bridge. Watercolor and pencil on paper. Signed 'Martin Lewis.' (lower left). c. 1920. 18" x 20" 1/2" sheet; 22 1/2" x 21 1/2" framed. Provenance: Christie's East, New York, 26 June 1985, lot 263. Spanierman Gallery, LLC, New York. Private collection, New York, circa 1990. Robert Henry Adams Fine Art, Chicago, Illinois. View of New York Harbor under the Manhattan Bridge. Martin Lewis (1881-1962), is considered one of the greatest American printmakers of the first half of the twentieth century. He used his superb sense of composition and his technical skill as a master printmaker to create images of New York City and rural Connecticut that are as captivating today as they were in the late 1920's when he was first recognized as an important artist. He was one of the first printmakers to sell out an edition of a print during an exhibition, and many of his etchings and drypoints sold out in a few months. Martin Lewis spent most of his life living in New York City after arriving from Australia; However, he did travel to Europe and lived briefly in Japan and rural Connecticut.

    Est: $800 - $1,200

    Martin Lewis (1881-1962) Bridge Near Nikko 1926 The etching with sand ground technique printed on FRANCE watermark paper in an edition of only 29 prints is signed by the artist in pencil lower right and titled by a different hand lower left edge of the sheet. According to Paul McCarron in The Prints of Martin Lewis, this print was planned to have an edition of only 60 prints. That's not many compared to most editions. But it turns out only 29 of that 60 were actually pulled, a very low edition in the end, making this a rare image. Sand ground etching is a printmaking process where the artist creates a textured protective layer on a metal plate using sand or coarse material. This texture affects how acid etches the plate, allowing for unique patterns and effects in the final print. The bridge connects foot travelers to sacred sacred shrines and other cultural treasures.
