JAMES LESESNE WELLS (1902 - 1992)
Landscape.

Etching on cream wove paper, 1940. 140x203 mm; 5 1/2x8 inches, full margins. A later printing by the artist in 1960. Signed, titled, dated "60", and numbered 3/35 in pencil, lower margin.

The artist has clearly written over a previous pencil signature and numbering. The style and subject of this scarce etching dates it to the early 1940s.
