About the Item

This print was made for the American Abstract Artists Portfolio, 1937. All the images were lithographs made on zinc plates. Usually they were signed or initialed in the image -- on the plate, as this one is. As a group they explored abstraction in the 1930s, while maintaining their individual styles. The plan was to make an edition of 500 portfolios although it seems highly unlikely that this was accomplished. The Whitney Museum of American Art has a set. The dimensions, 12 x 9 1/4 inches, are for the sheet; this work signed and dated in the plate. Ray Kaiser (1912-1988) was married to the noted designer Charles Eames.
