    Francis Roth etching Le Foucheret
    I have a French etching signed by Francis Roth. I bought it at an estate sale. The very old sticker on the back reads:
    French Etching
    Artist's Proof
    Original in Color
    by Roth #311
    Title: Le Foucheret
    Copper plate being inked and painted by hand
    Hand made proof
    Published in Paris
    Plate destroyed after the Limited Edition.

    At the top of the print it says: Copyright 1929 by L'Estampe Francaise - Paris

    on the lower left 74/280 is written. On the lower right it is signed Francis Roth and that is underlined.

    Was this a mass produced print or does this print have any value?

    Thank you.

    I think that it most likely is a mass-produced print by the Paris Etching Society. There is more information about those particular prints on the following link. https://www.askmehelpdesk.com/art/pa...ad-155531.html

    Whether it currently has any monetary value would be determined by what people might be willing to pay for it and information that might be gleaned from searches for similar prints of works on the Internet by the same artist. I will do some searching and get back to you.
