was stopped and Proctor turned to dry point engraving. Over this period he
completed approximately 40 engravings.
Dry point engravings are much more technical than etchings in that the
picture is carved directly onto a metal plate, making any mistake
unforgiving.
The Proctor Museum owns many of the original plates with rights for one
offering of limited editions. A series of 9 plates will be used to reproduce
Proctors engravings. The edition number will not exceed 250. If any plate
reaches a state of not being able to produce a high quality picture, the
edition will end prior to the designated number.
The starting prices are exceptional values and will increase as each edition
is sold.
