Martha Reed
Martha Reed, (Fishing)

1950

About the Item

Martha Reed was the daughter of the artist Doel Reed and as an adult she joined her parents in Taos, New Mexico. There she designed clothes with a south-western aesthetic and had a shop for three decades. This scene however looks more northern with a huge body of water, smooth rocks and pine trees. Oh, and 'weather.' She showed at the Ward Eggleston Gallery, NYC, in the 1950s. This 'Fishing' subject might actually show fly fishing. It is a linocut, signed in pencil.
