Comments:
Very good condition. Good margins. Two pieces of archival matting tape in the upper left and right corners, but well away from the image. Printed on cream Rives wove paper - watermarked BFK. An interesting print by this well respected graphic artist. A WPA impression in the collections of the Newark Art Museum and the Portland Art Museum. Though commonly listed as an etching the print appears to be done in drypoint with sanding and abrasion to the plate to add drama and darkness to the background.
