JOHN T. SCOTT (1940 - 2007)
Jonah and the Whale.

Color collagraph on cream wove paper, circa 1985. 545x965 mm; 21 1/2x38 inches, full margins. Artist's proof. Signed, titled and inscribed "A/P" in pencil, lower margin. A very good impression of this scarce print.

This series was included in Circle Dance: The Art of John T. Scott, a major retrospective at the New Orleans Museum of Art on May 7 - July 10, 2005.
