Cadillac Hotel, 1990
etching; ed: 30, 10 handcolored
15.5 x 19.75 in.
“Cadillac Hotel” was pulled on a Griffin etching press. First, the plate was incised by the artist. The prints were then individually pulled by hand by Valentin Popov, a printer visiting from the Soviet Union. The artist drew into a hard ground and stopped out the image for aquatint, which was etched in ferric chloride. Finally, the prints were hand-colored with watercolor by Catherine Register.
