MILTON AVERY
Mother and Child.

Drypoint, 1933. 228x180 mm; 9x7⅛ inches, full margins. One of only several proofs. Signed in pencil, lower left. A very good, richly-inked impression of this extremely scarce drypoint.

We have not found another impression at auction in the past 30 years.

This drypoint, only the second print made by Avery (1885-1965), is a study of the artist's wife Sally and their daughter, March, who was born in 1932. Lunn 2.
