Lionel Barrymore (Aft.) Etching  on Paper in Talio-Crome, The Old Boat Work
A nostalgic window into a bygone maritime world, The Old Boat Works by Lionel Barrymore captures the rustic charm of a working shipyard with remarkable intimacy and vigor. This work, originally etched by Barrymore and reproduced in the rare Talio-Crome process, evokes the artist's profound affection for seafaring life and artisanal labor. The scene bustles with activity, boat-builders toil, craftsmen labor, and two men share a quiet moment over mugs, while ships wait in the background, each element steeped in character and rendered with cinematic detail. Bearing Barrymore's name and the title in plate, this authorized Talio-Crome reproduction was part of a rediscovered collection from an old trunk, believed lost until the late 1930s. An actor of the famed Barrymore family and a passionate visual artist trained in Paris, Lionel Barrymore created these etchings with the same drama and storytelling he brought to stage and screen. Housed in its original vintage frame with Kaufman's Art Shop (York, PA) label and informative backing, this is a collector's gem, rich in provenance and Americana charm. Signed and titled in plate.
