Item Description
Signed E.T. Hurley in pencil; signed ETHurley in plate. Image is 6 5/8 x 9 7/8. Edward Timothy Hurley (1869 - 1950) is famous on two fronts. First, his etchings, paintings and illustrations made him a major architectural and landscape artist, particularly those dealing with his native city of Cincinnati. Secondly, as the leading artist of Rookwood Pottery, his name is forever prominent in the annals of American art pottery. Hurley first studied at the Cincinnati Art Academy, under Frank Duveneck. Two of his paintings are on prominent disply at the Cincinati Art Museum. E. T. Hurley's first etchings were published shortly after the end of the First World War (1918). During the following twenty years his finely decorative etchings and illustrations of Cincinnati led to the publication of no less than seven books upon that city. Most of his original Cincinnati etchings were published in small, signed editions of twenty-five impressions. These famous etchings stand as both important historical and artistic expressions of this major American city.
