James PenneyJames Penney, Street Pavers (New York City)1932
1932
About the Item
James Penney was widely known for his New Yorker covers as well as his paintings and prints. This lithograph of male laborers, Street Pavers, reminds us of the back-breaking labor that supports us all. And of course the heavy industrial machinery is always appreciated.
Penney was from Saint Joseph, Missouri. He trained in NYC at the Art Students League. The New-York Historical Society and the Library of Congress both have collections of his work.
Signed in ink; titled, dated, and annotated 'Proof,' in pencil.

Lawrence Beall Smith, Seaside Nomads
By Lawrence Beall Smith
Located in New York, NY
A perfect summer day. A young mother, little boy, and even smaller girl have their luncheon under a make shift 'fly' -- a stripped cloth canopy fixed up with poles. Although it is titled 'Seaside Nomads,' to me it has the look of a bay or inlet. It's relatively flat and there are all sorts of grasses, old...
