ROCKWELL KENT Fire!
Pen and black ink and wash and conté crayon over pencil on thin tan wove paper mounted on card stock, 1948. 300x185 mm; 117/8x71/4 inches. Signed in pencil, lower right on the mount. With another sheet on thin tan wove paper with a partial unidentified study in pencil mounted on the verso.
A study for the same-titled lithograph, printed in an edition of 100. Burne-Jones cites 9 preliminary drawings in the Kent Collection at the Columbia University Library, New York. He could not locate the finished drawing, which may in fact be the current work as this study is complete for the figure and lacks only the background and landscape. See Burne-Jones 143.
