Charles Locke (1899-1983) 20th Century WPA Cincinatti, Ohio/New York/PAFA Modernist best known for his etchings, urban genres, and portraits. Original hand signed limited edition lithograph on paper Pencil signed lower right--see photos Image: 8.5"x 10.75" Frame: 17.25"x 21.25" Looks excellent, rich impression, no visible wear, fading, or damage, not examined out of the frame--please look at photos carefully. Glass should be removed before shipping. Fantastic composition by Charles Locke! This print depicts two young men and a woman reclining in a vast rural field, executed with a beautiful sense of light. Locke was best known for his lithographs. This is a fine example of his work in great condition for its age. My price of $299 is extremely reasonable and far below what one would be expected to pay for it in a gallery or at auction. Please view my other Charles Locke lithograph as well as my other artwork listed on ebay this week--we are adding a new bunch every Thursday. If not sold they will go into my ebay store at a more realistic and higher buy-it-now price, or removed.
