About the Item
NY STREET SCENE II is an original hand drawn lithograph by the NY figurative expressionist painter, Lester Johnson. Printed in black ink using hand lithography techniques on archival paper 100% acid free, full bleed image, no margins. NY Street Scene II portrays a black and white group portrait of walking women and men whose doll-like faces look upwards and sideways - not at each other, drawn in expressive watercolor-marker lines. Both male and female figures stand crowded together moving - one woman wearing slacks and high heels, man in a derby hat, bent arms, legs and man's arm on the composition's right edge holding a cigarette all add to the dynamic 1980's New York City scene.
Print size - 29.75 x 22 inches, unframed, pencil signed and dated trial proof (Black and White approval sheet) by Lester Johnson
Edition size - 175
Year published - 1979
As a figurative expressionist and member of the Second Generation of the New York School, painter Lester Johnson remained dedicated to the human figure as means of expression through the many stylistic changes of his oeuvre.

Johnson lived and worked in New York City (on the Bowery), Springs, Milford (CT), Greenwich (CT), and Southampton, NY.
