- Original hand-signed etching by French artist Chas Laborde (1886–1941), known for his sharp and satirical observations of urban life in the interwar period.
This etching shows a religious street preacher amidst a bustling city crowd, with the sign reading “The Wicked Shall Be Turned Into Hell.” The style is forceful, expressive, and narrative—typical of Laborde’s work from his London period (c. 1928).
