$2,000–$20,000. Common subjects: $2,000–$5,000. Key value factors: Jacoulet's limited editions (typically 350 impressions) and distinctive subjects make his work consistently sought after.
"Le Nid, Corée" (The Nest, Korea) from 1941 uses a metaphorical title for what is likely a portrait of a Korean woman or family in a domestic setting — the nest as home, shelter, the intimate space of daily life. Jacoulet's Korean portraits of this period were produced under the complex conditions of Japanese colonial rule, and the domestic warmth of the "nest" title may reflect both his subjects' resilience and his own sensitivity to their situation. The print belongs to his most substantial body of Korean portraiture.
