Oklahoma Barn DOEL REED American, (1894-1985) Etching and aquatint, 1939, Cohen/Rogers 36, edition 50. 10 3/4 x 12 7/8 in. Signed in the plate, lower left. Signed, dated, numbered and titled in pencil. This is a fine impression with full margins. The condition is very good apart from very slight toning within an earlier mat opening and a small piece of paper tape attached to the top right corner away from the image. This early work is rare. Reed studied at the Art Academy of Cincinnati and was essentially self-taught as a printmaker. He later taught at what is now Oklahoma State University and was often inspired by the landscapes of the American southwest. He was elected to be a member of the National Academy of Design in 1942 and when he retired he moved to Taos, NM. SOLD |
