Historical Context:

Richard Lacroix is a notable artist known for his textural intaglio prints, often using intricate layering techniques that give depth and character to his work. His limited-edition prints are sought after by collectors of 20th-century printmaking and Canadian or European modernist art. The title Falaise suggests a landscape interpretation, possibly of cliffs or geological formations.

Market Value Estimate:

The value of Richard Lacroix's works depends on several factors, including condition, rarity, demand, and previous auction records. Given that this is a limited edition print (9/75), signed and numbered, its value would typically be higher than open edition prints.

  • Comparable sales: Lacroix's similar etchings from the same period have sold in the range of $250–$800, with some more intricate or rare editions reaching over $1,000 in galleries or at auction.
  • Framed value: If professionally framed, the value could increase by $100–$300, depending on materials and condition.
  • Auction vs. retail: At auction, it may fetch between $300–$600, while in a gallery or specialized fine art marketplace, it could be priced in the $600–$1,200 range.

Recommendation:

For a precise valuation, consider a professional appraisal through:

  • Fine art auction houses (Christie’s, Sotheby’s, Bonhams)
  • Local or online art appraisers specializing in modern printmaking
  • Art marketplaces like Artnet, 1stDibs, or LiveAuctioneers to compare similar pieces
