ROMARE BEARDEN (1911 - 1988) The Street (Harlem).
Photostat print mounted on masonite, 1964. 505x630 mm; 19 7/8x24 3/4 inches. A fine impression of a very scarce, very early work.
We have found only one other known impression in a larger 31x40 inch format, in the collection of the Romare Bearden Foundation, New York.
Provenance: Gift from the artist; New York private collection.
This "projection" is larger than the collage, which is in the collection of the Milwaukee Art Museum.
