Ex-collection Arthur Ackerman & Son, Inc., with the gallery label on the frame back. Elyse Ashe Lord (1900-1971) developed a highly individual artistic style by blending her fascination with Eastern culture with the modern aesthetics of Art Deco and 1920s fashion. Although she never traveled to China, she drew rich inspiration from Chinese paintings, embroideries, and artifacts to craft her imagery. She was particularly innovative in her technical approach, combining drypoint etching with woodcut color printing. By using the drypoint line as a foundation-much like a Japanese "key block"-she would then layer colors using woodblocks under her own rigorous, personal supervision to ensure precision.

Two color etchings. The first 5 1/2 x 4 inches and entitled "The Complaint" and is a trail proof. Lord has signed it in the lower margin and has added this remark; If a woman talks to you [nod?] but do not listen". THis, like the following is mounted on a sheet where Else Lord had given these details: The Complaint. Publisher by Reed and [], 1928. Editin 50 plus 20 trail proofs. Exhibited; Chinese Drawings and Prints by Elyse Lord, Lefervre Galleries, 192."The second is unpublished but Lord has titled it "On the Way Home". Measure 6 1/2 x 8 inches. Lord has written on the paper to the side; Dusk, Unpublished 129. Aquatint and Dry Point. Only few proofs.Both housed in a contemporary frame. Frame with some wear to extruding parts. A lovely set."Elyse Ashe Lord developed her unique artistic style exclusively around oriental subject matter. Her art was inspired by both Chinese art and various aspects of oriental culture. Although E.A.Lord never actually travelled to China, she used Chinese paintings, embroideries and wall hangings, together with objects from surrounding Eastern countries, as the sources for her images. The highly individual style which Elyse Lord created reflects both this source material and the influences of Art Deco and early 1920?s fashion.In particular, Elyse Lord is unusual in combining the technique of drypoint with woodcut colour printing. She uses the drypoint design almost as the Japanese would have used a key block in multiple block colour printing. The colours would then be added by over-printing the drypoint design using colour-inked wood blocks, precisely as displayed by this unique series of progressive proofs. Elyse Lord would always supervise the difficult process of printing her plates and blocks, in person" (Campbell).
