MARTIN LEWIS Shadow Dance.
Drypoint and sand-ground, 1930. 235x275 mm; 9 1/4x10 3/4 inches, full margins. Artist's proof, aside from the edition of approximately 109. Signed and inscribed "trial proof 5" in pencil, lower margin. A superb, richly-inked, luminous impression with all the details distinct.
According to McCarron, "The location depicted appears to be the intersection of Thirty-Fourth Street and Park Avenue, looking west." Lewis has captured the bright summer sun setting across the Hudson River, its raking light forming long shadows from the figures walking east across Park Avenue. McCarron 88.
