LIMITED EDITION - COPY No.338. RARE collection of 12 b&w silkscreen (serigraph) prints by an eminent Argentinian artist Juan Batlle Planas (1911-1966) belonging to the surrealist school, but orienting in his later phases to romanticism. Many of his works, while obscure, were sombre in feeling, influenced by social unrest and economic and political problems in Argentina. Batlle Planas was an influence on numerous Latin American painters, including Roberto Aizenberg and Dalila Puzzovio, who studied under him. The prints depict San Telmo ("Saint Pedro González Telmo") - the oldest barrio (neighborhood) of Buenos Aires characterized by its picturesque colonial buildings. 390x280mm. 12 separate plates & 12 text pages (6 unbound double pages) laid in Hardcover folder with cloth spine and string-tie closure.
