Manhattan - LAWRENCE KUPFERMAN
Medium: drypoint
LAWRENCE KUPFERMAN
American, (1909-1982)
Drypoint, 1943, from a very small edition. 11 x 8 1/4 in. Signed and titled in pencil and also inscribed, "Dec 29, 1943." This is a superb impression of this compelling and extremely rare print. This is the full sheet as printed (with a ragged edge across the bottom). Fine condition. This potent, wartime image is among his finest prints and the influence of German expressionism is readily evident. Kupferman was a Boston contemporary of Karl Knaths, Jack Levine, Hyman Bloom and Carl Zerbe. During the years 1937-1940, they were all employed by the WPA program. Kupferman was teaching at the Massachusetts College of Art when this print was done. A comparable work to this is "Vertigo." $1,600
