Description
An early, abstract experiment in lithography by the noted monotypist Joseph Goldyne. Goldyne finished a medical degree in San Francisco but persued his interest and love of art history and printmaking instead.
This lithograph, the artist's sixth print, shows his love of drawing and his experimenting with the flow of the liquid tusche, with images of fetuses that were lingering from his study of anatomy and medicine. The image was one of a series of six lithographs titled "Pregnant Shell Landscape" Goldyne printed in Boston at Impressions Workshop, working with Master Printers Paul McGuire and Herb Fox.
The Corcoran Gallery of Art has impressions 28/30 in their archive collection.
