GEORGE BELLOWS
The Street.

Lithograph on thin cream wove paper, 1917. 485x387 mm; 19x15 1/4 inches, full margins. Edition of 54. Signed, titled and inscribed "No. 53" in pencil, lower margin. A superb impression of this large, scarce lithograph, with strong contrasts and all the subtle tonal nuances showing clearly.

According to Bellows, this classic New York scene is "under the elevated, lower east side in mid-summer." Mason 47.
