CHARLES WHITE (1918 - 1979)
Solid as a Rock (My God is Rock).

Linoleum cut on thin Japan paper, 1958. 1134x305 mm; 38x14 7/8 inches, wide (full ?) margins. Signed, titled and dated in pencil, lower margin. An excellent impression of this large, scarce print.

We have found only one other impression at auction in the past 20 years. According to Gedeon, the artist printed impressions between 1956 and 1958 on an individual basis. Other impressions are found in the collections of Atlanta University and Camille O. and William H. Cosby, Jr. Gedeon Eb11.
