King Charles Bridge, original etching, Zamponi

owlwun · July 4th, 2010, 10:06 PM

Hello. I own the title item and hope to identify resources for assessing value. "King Charles Bridge" is signed Jar. Stretti-Zamponi (1882-1959). It was matted in a simple wooden frame by Geister & Zmich, 226 Wabash Ave., Chicago, whose foil seal is affixed to the back. There is also a handwritten label that says King Charles Bridge - original etching - Zamponi. The etching is about 4.75"x5.25". Naturally, I'd like to determine the age, whether it really is an original, and whether it has value. Any clues or advice about how or where to track this down would be much appreciated. Thanks.

There is a print of the Charles' Bridge Tower in Winter (1910) listed here, however, you need a subscription to view the hammer price. http://web.artprice.com/ps/artitems.aspx?idarti=MzQxNTIwNDYyMjYyMDQt&refGenre =B&page=1

Hope that this is of some help.
