About the Item

Harry Shokler used serigraphy to great advantage in this landscape. It's colorful and detailed. It is signed in the image at the lower left. When printmakers began making serigraphs in the 1930s they weren't always able to make the edges of the image as neat as they are here. So it became the habit to sign inside the image to give the collector the option of matting to the edge of the image and showing the signature or outside the image leaving some of the paper showing.
