Beschreibung: This precise graphic print is the work of the renowned Belgian painter and graphic artist Henri Logelain, who favored depicting European architecture and urban life in his work. The scene captures a dynamic view of a historic part of Brussels, dominated by richly decorated facades of guild houses, among which the house with the inscription “Au Jeune Renard” stands out. With an extraordinary sense of detail and perspective, the artist has depicted the atmosphere of the street, where the historical grandeur of architecture meets the everyday movement of figures in the foreground. Logelain's hand in this etching technique excels with fine hatching and sensitive work with light and shadow, which gives the piece depth and an authentic period feel. The work is clearly signed by the artist in pencil “Henri Logelain” in the lower right corner. In the lower left corner, there is a handwritten numbering “161/225” (or 169/225), which places this print in a limited and highly collectible edition. The print is executed in a sepia tone, which enhances the nostalgic character of the depicted scenery and underscores the historical significance of the place. The paper bears a natural period patina with slight oxidation spots, consistent with its age and confirming the authenticity of the print. The graphic is framed in a representative dark brown wooden frame, which is complemented by a delicate golden beading on the inner edge. Minor mechanical damage (a chip) is visible on the bottom edge of the frame, which, however, does not detract from the overall aesthetic of the work. This piece by Henri Logelain represents a sought-after acquisition for collectors of quality European graphics and lovers of old urban architecture.
