Slaughterhouse II - Limited Edition Etching by E. Quas
This is a limited edition print titled 'Slaughterhouse II', numbered 7/100 in the bottom right corner of the margin. The artwork is hand-signed by the artist, whose signature appears to be 'E. Quas', followed by a '96' date notation, suggesting it was produced in 1996. The piece is an original intaglio print, specifically an etching or aquatint, characterized by a visible plate mark and a soft, textured tonal quality. The composition features a stylized, multi-tonal architectural scene depicting a series of buildings in a palette of slate blue, earthy red, and stark white against a neutral grey-blue background. The buildings are rendered with a somewhat abstract, weathered aesthetic, consistent with late 20th-century contemporary printmaking styles. The work is printed on heavyweight, textured off-white or cream fine art paper with deckled edges visible under the white window mat. The condition appears excellent with no visible foxing, yellowing, or paper waviness. The crispness of the signature and numbering suggests it has been well-preserved away from direct light. The craftsmanship shows high-quality ink saturation and precise plate alignment common in professional print studios.
