@phs2,

Im gonna say that its a students work in engraving. ( dont get me wrong Its very good stuff), But its sorta "after" the late style of Giorgio Mirandi.

@phs2,

Maybe someone will just recognize them, but I doubt anyone here can make out the signature.

@farmerman,

You could be right. My Dad's 91 and he is having a hard time remembering anything about them

@farmerman,

Not to quibble but in case it helps - I am guessing that's Giorgio Morandi that the work reminds you of. I've long liked his work.

@phs2,

I can barely see them, but I don't have the best eyes. They don't look like Morandi (or a Morandi wannabe) to me, but I might not have gotten to see all his work. He was into simplicity, pretty much first and foremost (in my memory).

@ossobuco,

I looked at a bunch of his work also, and it doesn't look like his to me either.
You can zoom in on them at the bottom of the photo

He has a seris of works from his later stuff that looked like the engravings style of yoiurs. His overall body is mostly aquatint I believe
