Western Dogwood - WILLIAM S. RICE

Medium: woodcut printed in colors

WILLIAM S. RICE
American, (1873-1963)

Woodcut printed in colors, circa 1925-30, edition probably about 15-20 impressions. 11 1/8 x 9 in. Signed and titled in pencil. Here we have a fine impression printed on thin Japan paper. The margins appear to be full. The condition is fine apart from a few reinforced wrinkles in the upper right corner of the image. These are not at all noticeable. This print is, at least in part, a white line woodcut. The artist also added hand coloring to the flower buds. Rice was born in Pennsylvania and later moved to California where he taught printmaking at the Alameda and Oakland public schools. Rice was a true craftsman and he authored two books on the subject of block printing. Ex-collection: Reba White Williams, NY.      $2,800
