In this almost sculptural image of a guitarist, we see a style that exhibits hallmarks of cubism and mid-century American abstract expressionism, executed by a person who worked with ease on the litho stone. As yet we do not know who this artist is, as it's only signed "J. Schrader". We suspect it may be John E. "Jack" Schrader, a multi-disciplenary artist from Tennessee very active in the mid-20th century.
