About the Item
David Feintstein is a master draughtsman working in the genre of everyday life in New York City. His style is highly original, especially in this work. Here he's used Visitors' Day (probably at his local NYC Public School) to show every manner of female that he can find/create/present. If there's a man in the scene I can't find him. Not even sure any of the children are boys! His variety is endless. Even the chair backs vary from one to the other and every little girl has a different outfit and hairstyle, just like the grownups
This lithograph was made for the NYC-WPA and has the stamp at the lower left; It is signed and titled, in pencil. Usual editions were 25 although Visitor's Day seems to be scarcer than most subjects. There is an impression in the Philadelphia Museum of Art.
Glue stains from the reverse are showing through at the lower left of the image. These are an indication that the original WPA label affixed in that spot.
