Out of interest a couple of linocuts by Norbertine von Bresslern Roth have come up on US ebay. I've not seen either of these before. Both are apparently illustrations for Oscar Wilde's
The young fisherman and his soul. I was specially taken with the paper she used, possibly because the images are small. It makes the whole production look precious.
I also include a close-up so that you see just how good her technique was.Starting at $800 each.
