Artist proof woodblock print

hi folks

this is a print i found with the watercolour (unframed)

signed but cant make out the signature

can anyone make it out

not sure if its a woodblock print or not, the image is in a slight recess, which is shown on the back

any thoughts or help appreciated

 

Pretty picture. I love your avatar ! " But you see in dealing with me, the relatives didn't know that they were dealing with a staunch character and I tell you if there's anything worse than dealing with a staunch woman... S-T-A-U-N-C-H. There's nothing worse, I'm telling you. They don't weaken, no matter what."!

 

, God love her, watched it again recently and it never tires. Her reoccurring brooch and make shift outfits and bickering with her mother.

I am right in thinking she had hardly any hair as well ?

 

The plate mark makes me think this is an intaglio print, but I don't know how the plate was prepared. Woodblock is a relief process, so no plate mark.

Could easily be a couple different techniques combined.

What is that dark spot wandering around (or are there several)?

 

Interesting thanks mos.
It's damage to the camera lens !

 

Yes ! It was thought she had alopecia. She was a looker in her youth. Both mad as hatters,but never boring !

 

I'm seeing E R Quintyne.
Nothing on the internet.

 

Looks like that to my eye too.
