Times Square
Lithograph, 1933, edition 15. 14 x 19 3/4 in. Signed, titled, numbered and dated in pencil. This is a fine impression with full margins. The condition is fine other than for a couple of repaired splits in the margins, well away from the image. Penney was from Missouri and studied at the University of Kansas. He moved to New York where he spent three years at the Art Students League and studied with John Sloan and Charles Locke among others. He was a WPA mural painter in addition to his fine work as a lithographer. This is one of his finest works and other examples of his printmaking are found in the National Gallery. Times Square is a rare print.
