FRANCES GEARHART
American, (1869-1959)
Block print printed in colors, circa 1933, from a small edition. 10 1/8 x 10 in. Signed and titled in pencil. This is a superb impression printed on a light cream, fibrous Japanese paper. The margins are full and the condition is fine. (There's tiny paper repair in the upper left margin corner where the original hinge is.) This exceptional print is illustrated on page 67 of Frances H. Gearhart, Color Block Prints in Wichita, 1922-1937 by Roger Genser, Wichita Art Museum, 2019. The bold blue color provided by the trees in the foreground make this a potent, expressionist style print and it's more daring than many of her images. (This print was exhibited in the 1933 Wichita Block Print Exhibition which suggests to us a possible date for the print.) $8,500
