Pierre Auguste Renoir Helio-Engraving on Velin d' Arches Paper Hand pulled from a original copper plate, not a restrike. <p> Paris Published December 1919. This example is from the edition of 375 works (numbered 101-475) printed on Arches paper.

The plate measures 240 mm x 200 mm, The paper measures 327 mm x 248 mm ...
