Description
This Mallette Dean 1937 woodcut has the "Federal Art Project" blindstamp in the lower right corner and has an ink datestamp of "July 29, 1938" on the verso, indicating the day it was received by the FAP. The subject is quite abstracted, more like the German expressionists than the usual detailed wood engravings Dean was noted for.
