Beach Scene (Coney Island)
Screenprint, circa 1940, edition probably about 25-50. 14 x 20 in. Signed and titled in pencil. This is a very good impression in good condition. The margins are full. There's a suggestion of toning within an earlier mat opening, a few small stains in the upper right margin corner well away from the image and a couple of printing wrinkles which are not really that noticeable. Warsager was an active member of the New York City WPA Graphics Arts division. He worked closely with Anthony Velonis in developing the silkscreen process as a fine arts medium. This is a large print and a great subject for the period. An impression is in the Art Institute of Chicago collection with the title, Beach Scene at Seagate.
