LETTERIO CALAPAI
11:45 P.M.

Etching, engraving and aquatint, 1947. 500x301 mm; 19 3/4x11 7/8 inches, full margins. Signed, titled and numbered 2/35 in pencil, lower margin. A very good, richly-inked impression.

Among Calapai's best known images, this print combines elements from his traditional study at the Art Students League, New York, with the influence of Stanley W. Hayter's Atelier 17, where Calapai worked in 1946-47.
