Note: A remarque is a small vigne!e image in the margin of a print, o"en related thematically to the main image. Originally remarques were scribbled sketches made in the margins of etchings so that the artist could test the plate, his needles, or the strength of the etching acid prior to working on the main image. These remarques were usually removed prior to the first publication of the print. During the etching revival, in the late nineteenth century, remarques became popular as an additional design element in prints and were also used in the creation of remarque proofs. The oil on wood work by Ve!er is housed in the collection of the Musee d'Orsay, Paris, France. $150—250
