Description
Ian Hugo originally created "Ten Engravings" in 1945 and the portfolio included a foreward by his partner and collaborator, Anais Nin. In the 1970s, Hugo republished the portfolio with Madeleine-Claude Jobrack, an American master printmaker who studied under Stanley William Hayter at Atelier 17, Paris, and with Johnny Friedlaender. When Jobrack returned to the states she managed the Robert Blackburn Printmaking Studio in New York before opening her own printing studio, Madeleine-Claude Jobrak Editions.
