Aspen and Spruce
Screenprint, 1949, Patterson 92, edition unknown. 11 x 13 in. Signed and titled in pencil. This is a fine impression in excellent condition. The margins are full. In addition to her work in the woodcut medium, Hall started marking serigraphs (silkscreens) not long after her arrival in Santa Fe. She probably learned the medium from Louis Ewing who was employed by the New Mexico WPA project in the late 1930s. "Aspen and Spruce" is a very good example of her work in this medium.

Marigolds
Woodcut printed in colors, 1929, Patterson 41, edition 60. 8 x 6 15/16 in. Initialed in the block with the artist's monogram. Signed, numbered and titled in pencil. This is a fine impression with fresh colors. The paper is a thin Japanese. The condition is very good apart from a small tear and associated wrinkle in the lower right corner margin and the print is attached to a support sheet at the two top corners. This was certainly done early on. (There's an extremely faint suggestion of toning within an early mat opening.) According to the catalogue, this edition was probably never completed.

Navajo Land
Woodcut printed in colors, 1947, Patterson 82a, edition 100. 9 3/8 x 14 in. Initialed in the block, lower right, with the artist's monogram. Signed, titled and numbered in pencil. This is a fine, luminous impression with probably the full margins. The condition is very good apart from a few minor traces of an old adhesive here and there in the outer margins not near the image. There's a small paper imperfection just touching the image on the top right side. In the background is Shiprock, a sacred Navajo mountain located in San Juan county, New Mexico. This exceptional woodcut by Hall was originally intended to be printed in an edition of 50, but due to its success, the edition was extended to 100 impressions.
