Theodore Roussel. Untitled Drawing for Frame Cartouche (Salamander). 1899–1908. England. Brush and black ink, gold metallic ink, and watercolor on semi-transparent tan wove paper This particularly bold design for a wide frame molding was conceived, drawn, and even initialed by the artist, but never produced. Roussel also created two variant emblems for the blank cartouche at top center—a cluster of silhouetted flowers resembling anemones, in black, and a salamander before a rising sun, rendered in colors that include metallic pigment.
