GEORGE BELLOWS The Pool-Player.
Lithograph on cream wove paper, 1921. 133x260 mm; 5 1/4x10 1/4 inches, full margins. Edition of 40. Signed in pencil, lower right, and signed and inscribed "imp" by the printer, Bolton Brown, in pencil, lower left. A superb impression of this very scarce lithograph.
According to Mason, the seated figure left background may be a self-portrait. He notes, "Bellows was familiar with the billiard rooms of the Players Club on Gramercy Park, New York, as well as those of the National Arts Club and the Salmagundi Club." Mason 83.
