About the Item

Excellent Condition; never framed or matted; lithograph by the artist, verso, as issued. Notes: Extracted from the volume, XXe Siècle, vol. n° 5-6, 1939. Published by Editions XXe Siècle, Paris; Printed by Mourlot, Paris, 1939. JOHN JOSEPH WARDELL POWER (1881-1943), often referred to as J. W. Power, was an Australian modernist artist who practised his art in England and Europe. The Power Institute of Fine Arts at the University of Sydney bears his name. He lived in London, Paris, Brussels, and Bournemouth, before moving to Bellozanne on the island of Jersey in the Channel Islands. He met Pablo Picasso in Paris in the 1920s and around 1931 he bought ten signed prints from him. Despite his success and his prolific output in England and France, Power remained relatively unknown in Australia, but always identified as Australian.
