$1,650.00

“SOLITUDE” (Peck’s Beach in Ocean City, New Jersey) is an original pencil signed etching done by American artist Edith Loring Peirce Getchell (1855-1940). She was one of only two women included in an 1886 volume of the 25 leading etchers in the United States. In 1887, she was invited  to exhibit in the groundbreaking exhibition “Women Etchers of America”, and accepted into the nearly all male New York Etching Club. Her work is revered for its tonalism, fine detail and masterful rendering of nature’s subtleties.
