About the Item
Provincetown Players is a beautiful black and white lithograph on "C. M. Fabriano" watermarked paper, made by the Swedish illustrator and reporter Adolf Reinhold Hallman in 1959. The state of preservation is excellent. On the back the blue ink stamp "Made in Italy by Adolf Hallman, 54 Via Margutta Roma". at the center of the sheet. Including a white cardboard passepartout, cm 34 x 49.
On the lower margin and on the right margin there are black ink hand-written notes, inside the image, the date and the signature “Hallmann”.
The inscription that gives the title to the artwork refers to the American theatrical organization began performing in 1915 in Provincetown founded by a nontheatre group of writers and artists whose common aim was the production of new and experimental poetry.
In 1916 the group produced in New York City Eugene O’Neill’s Bound East for Cardiff and Thirst, thus launching the career of one of America's distinguished playwrights. So Provincetown Players took up residence in New York City’s Greenwich Village, as Hallman reports on lower margin, and for years thereafter discovered and developed the work of such noted writers, designers, and actors as Donald Oenslager, Kenneth Macgowan, Jasper Deeter, and Paul Green whose In Abraham’s Bosom was awarded the Pulitzer Price in 1927.
The Provincetown Players flourished as a noncommercial theatre and stimulated the work of many theatrical talents that otherwise might have remained obscure.
