C. Jae Young, Signed Etching, 1930
This is an etching by C Jae Young (1880 - NA), a Bavarian artist who moved to this
country as a child and became a member of the Brooklyn Society of Etchers in the
1920’s and produced this etching in 1930, the fourteenth year the Society was in
existence. He was self-taught and became a member of the Salmagundi Club, and
exhibited in the United States and Canada. The etching is entitled “Surf-pounded
Coast”, which represents the northern coastline of Maine. Only 480 proofs were made
for the artist and then the original plate was destroyed. The piece is signed in the lower. It comes with a beautifully crafted descriptive note from the Brooklyn Society of
Etchers that supported this work by C Jae Young. The note itself is initialed by John
Taylor Arms (J.T. A.), one of the founding members of the Society.
