A beautiful and exceedingly engaging limited edition etching/print titled "Street Booth, Tokyo New Years Eve" by famed Australian/American painter/artist/master printmaker Martin Lewis (1881-1962). This image was created in 1927. Lewis was born in Castlemaine, Victoria, Australia in 1881 but migrated to the United States in 1900. After working in San Francisco and New York he then traveled to Japan to study Japanese art for two years. Lewis eventually returned to the US and settled back in New York in the early 1920s where he would experience his most artistically productive breakthrough period (between 1925-1935) in which he would create some of his most well-known works including this piece. Today, Lewis is universally considered to be one of the most important American printmakers of the twentieth century - a master of light and shadow. This work is a drypoint etching, printed in black ink on cream wove paper with full margins. A brilliant, luminous, and richly-inked impression. From a noted (McCarron, Paul. The Prints of Martin Lewis: A Catalogue Raisonne, p. 60) edition of 40 recorded impressions. According to McCarron, this is the most accomplished of Lewis' Japan prints: "New Year''s Day is an important holiday in Japan. The Japanese traditionally decorate their streets and homes with shimenawa, knotted straw ropes blessed and purified by Shinto priests...

Clearly demonstrating his love for the culture and sensuality of his adopted Hawaii, and brilliantly executed, Robert Lee Eskridge's "Stone Fishing" is a landmark in Art Deco printmaking.

He lived in Hawaii for many years and is renowned for his depictions of native Hawaiians...

The artwork titled "Der Leuchter" (The Candelabra) is a striking lithograph from Nathan Altmann's "Jüdische Graphik" series, produced in a limited edition of only 250 copies in 1923. This work exemplifies Altmann's avant-garde style, blending traditional Jewish themes with the modernist aesthetics of Cubism. The candelabra, traditionally a significant symbol in Jewish culture—often associated with the menorah—here is abstractly interpreted, adding layers of cultural and spiritual meaning. Altmann’s choice of a burnished gold background not only enriches the visual impact but also elevates the symbolic elements, giving the artwork a solemn and revered quality. This specific piece, like others from the series, was produced in Berlin by the publisher "Petropolis," reflecting the vibrant Jewish artistic community that existed in pre-war Europe. Altmann’s work, especially given his background as a Jewish artist in Soviet Russia, often navigated between his cultural identity and the broader avant-garde movements, making each of his pieces historically and artistically significant. This print, considering its rarity and the mystery surrounding the number of surviving copies, is an exceptional representation of Jewish cultural history intertwined with early 20th-century art movements. Nathan Altman was an influential figure in the Russian and Soviet avant-garde movement. Born in 1889 in Vinnytsia, Ukraine, he studied at the Odessa Art School, later moving to Paris to further his education at the Academie de la Grande Chaumiere. Altman's style evolved over the years, showing strong influences from Cubism and Futurism, which are evident in his approach to stage design and book illustration as well. Altman's contributions extend beyond visual arts; he was also notable for his set designs for Jewish theaters...

The print, titled "Die Löwen" (The Lions), by Nathan Altman is a compelling work in black and white lithography set against a burnished gold background. This specific print comes from a limited edition series titled "Jüdische Graphik" (Jewish Graphics), published in Berlin in 1923 by "Petropolis." Only 250 copies of this series were produced, making each surviving piece a rare collector's item. Nathan Altman was an influential figure in the Russian and Soviet avant-garde movement. Born in 1889 in Vinnytsia, Ukraine, he studied at the Odessa Art School, later moving to Paris to further his education at the Academie de la Grande Chaumiere. Altman's style evolved over the years, showing strong influences from Cubism and Futurism, which are evident in his approach to stage design and book illustration as well. "Die Löwen" reflects Altman's skill in using stark contrasts and geometric abstraction, characteristics common to Cubism. This work likely carries symbolic meanings, perhaps reflecting themes of power, resilience, or Jewish heritage, which are expressed through the stylized, powerful imagery of the lions. The choice of a gold background not only highlights the figures but also adds a regal or sacred connotation, elevating the subjects in a manner that may tie back to historical or cultural significance within Jewish art. Altman's contributions extend beyond visual arts; he was also notable for his set designs for Jewish theaters...

This artwork, presumably from Nathan Altman's "Jüdische Graphik" series, showcases a stunning lithograph of doves amongst foliage, rendered in black and white against a burnished gold background. The intricacy of the design, combined with the symbolic choice of doves—often representing peace or the Holy Spirit—suggests a layer of deep cultural or spiritual significance. The style retains Altman's avant-garde influences, merging cubist shapes and forms to create a dynamic and visually engaging composition. The print, possibly titled "Die Tauben" (The Doves), would be another example of Altman's ability to convey powerful themes through the medium of print, aligning with his other works from the 1923 series in terms of technique and thematic exploration. The limited edition nature of these prints adds to their rarity and desirability among collectors and scholars of both Jewish art and avant-garde movements of the early 20th century. As with the other prints from this series, the limited edition of only 250 copies increases its rarity and value. Altman's work not only captures significant biblical narratives but also reflects the broader themes of cultural identity and modernist experimentation in the early 20th century. Altmann’s choice of a burnished gold background not only enriches the visual impact but also elevates the symbolic elements, giving the artwork a solemn and revered quality.

Jerome Myers (American, 1867–1940) "Virginia Modeling," ca. 1912–1920 Hand-colored etching on paper, pencil signed Jerome Myers imp. with pencil notation on the back left corner of VIRGINIA MODELING Possibly an artist’s proof outside the edition of 50 Description: An exceptional and intimate hand-colored etching by Jerome Myers, a foundational member of the Ashcan School and one of early 20th-century America’s most lyrical chroniclers of urban life. Virginia Modeling depicts Myers’s young daughter seated at a table forming a small clay figure beside a lush floral arrangement—a tender scene of childhood creativity rendered with the artist’s characteristic delicacy. This composition is based on a 1912 preparatory drawing now held in the Cooper Hewitt Smithsonian Design Museum. The etching was created around 1920 and is hand-colored in subtle tones, likely by the artist himself or in collaboration with his wife, artist Ethel Myers. The work is pencil signed and marked imp, indicating that the artist printed or supervised the printing of this impression himself—suggesting a personal connection to this particular work.
