    Hi, Brad!

    Information about Camilla Lucas appears to be sketchy and hard to find. But, I did find some information on a couple of sites that I've quote some from below.

    Amazing 1951 Art folio of Six (6) LANDSCAPE IN PAINTING: Country Landscape colored artist print by publisher, Camilla Lucas. Sydney Z. Lucas founded Camilia Lucas Publishers and formed the Paris Etching Society which worked out of the garment district in NY selling reproduction fine art prints from their gallery.
    From: 1951 Art Folio (6) Country Landscapes by Camila Lucas NY - FAPF-103

    FRAMED ETCHING NUMBER 28 - PIERRE This Charming framed ETCHING measures 11 1/2 inches by 13 1/2 inches. On the bottom lower left there is a triangle stamp 'SZL' ,Sidney Z. Lucas, triangular patch and hand written in French 'E clairice en foret 28, it is signed IN PENCIL on the lower right Pierre. Printed on the upper right is - copyright 1937 Camille Lucas - NY - USA. This is a lovely print of a country scene. Nicely framed in good condition.

    Sidney Z. Lucas (SZL) was the owner of a New York business named The Old Print Center and he also owned a Gallery named after his mother, the Camilla Lucas Gallery, from 1928 to the 1950's. During these years he traveled to Europe several times a year and commissioned etchings by various French artists which he copyrighted and published under the "PES" (Paris Etching Society) imprint. Each artist would name his etching and sign his name, usually in pencil.
