About the Item

Joseph (Joe) Leboit made this extremely intense image of a supposedly happy recipient of a 'Derby Winner.' (Probably refers to the Irish Derby.) In fact the couple and seventeen children are in an almost claustrophobic environment. In later life Leboit became a psychoanalyst. Perhaps his interest in different emotional states is already evident in these faces. This large lithograph is signed and titled in pencil. It was made in an edition of 25 for the NYC WPA.
