Blanche Grambs
Blanche Grambs, (Study for a Souffle)

1960, about

About the Item

In the 1950s and 60s Grambs worked on many commissions. The symmetrical nature of the drawing suggests it was for a book or magazine project with facing pages -- possibly a cookbook. The size of the image is 8 x 10 inches, however the sheet is 10 x 13 3/4 inches. The old glue on the reverse indicates that it was mounted to a support sheet at some point. None of the glue shows through that I can see. It is signed in pencil.
