CHARLES BURCHFEILD
Carolina Village (Camden, South Carolina).

Burchfield made only 10 wood engravings, all of which date from 1923-26. The blocks were engraved by Julius J. Lankes after Burchfield had drawn the designs on them. A very good, well-inked impression. Prasse 180; Steadman (University of Arizona) 211.
