RAPHAEL SOYER
Springtime.

Color lithograph, circa 1970. 365x455 mm; 14 3/8x17 7/8 inches, full margins. Artist's proof. Signed and inscribed "AP" in black crayon, lower margin. A very good impression.

Soyer reworked a same-titled lithograph from 1938 (Cole 56) into this color lithograph. He located the three male subjects on a park bench in Washington Square, New York, in 1935, and made a painting of this scene, followed by the 1938 lithograph and then the current work.
