The artist’s gestural handwriting is brilliantly alive, activating the vivid red and orange field as if with an electrical charge. Each stoke and shape has distinctive modifications within it, however, and their surfaces reveal the lushness and diversity aquatint etching can yield in the hands of a master. Tout à Coup is one of the prints… that was made in privacy, the artist having asked all of the workshop staff to leave her alone in the studio.”
