About the Item

ERNEST FREED (1908 – 1974) DON QUIXOTE 1956 Color intaglio, Signed, dated and titled in pencil. Image, 14 ¾ x 8 3/4 sheet, 16 1/2 x 10 ¼ inches. In good condition. The following is taken from "The Art of the Print" "Ernest Bradfield Freed, 'Ernest Freed': A major twentieth century California printmaker and painter, Ernest Bradfield Freed received his formal education from Indiana State Teacher's College (1926), the University of Illinois (B. F. A., 1933), the Pennsylvania Academy of Fine Arts and the University of Iowa (M.A). Freed's first solo exhibition took place in 1936, a year in which he was also awarded a Tiffany Scholarship. Important as both an artist and educator, Ernest Freed first assumed the post of Director of Art Education at the University of Iowa. At this time he also studied printmaking techniques under Mauricio Lasansky. He then became Head of the School of Art at Bradley University and shortly thereafter established a National Print Exhibition. In 1954 (one year before the creation of Adoration of the Magi) Ernest Freed moved to Los Angeles and served as the Head of Printmaking at Otis Art Institute for a twenty year period. At Otis he established the National Print Invitational. From 1936 Ernest Freed's art was exhibited throughout the United States, Canada, England and France. Today his fine prints are included in the collections of the Fine Arts Museums of San Francisco, the Los Angeles County Museum of Art, University of Southern California, Library of Congress, the Smithsonian Institution, Baltimore Museum of Fine Art, the Whitney Museum of American Art, the Metropolitan Museum of Art, New York, the Victoria and Albert Museum, London, and the Bibliotheque Nationale, Paris. Ernest Bradfield Freed's printmaking techniques were equally impressive in their exploration of both abstract and figurative elements. He both printed and published most of his original prints"
