ELIZABETH CATLETT (1915 - 2012)
Watts/Detroit/Washington/Harlem/Newark.

Color linoleum cut on cream wove paper, 1970. 540x876 mm; 21 1/4x34 1/2 inches, full margins. Artist's proof, aside from an edition of an unknown size. Signed, titled, dated and inscribed "P/A" in pencil, lower margin. A very good, dark impression of this extremely scarce print.

We have not found another record of this print at auction in the past 20 years, and have located only two other impressions in private collections.
