About the Item

Original Etching in excellent condition by New York artist Paul Cadmus (1904-1999). Signed in pencil lower right. Created 1938. Presents in a simple black frame, archivally matted. Titled: “Two boys on a Beach No. 1.” Edition size: 75. Image measures: 5 1/8"h x 7 1/8"w. Frame measures: 14 1/4"h x 15 1/8"w. Born in New York City, Paul Cadmus was a figure artist whose subjects are usually male figures. As an artist, he was dedicated to keeping figurative work alive in the face of total abstraction and non-objective painting. He studied at the National Academy of Design from 1919 to 1926 and at the Art Students League with illustrator Joseph Pennell and painter, Kenneth Hayes Miller. From 1931 to 1933, he lived in Italy and traveled extensively in Europe, especially Spain, and was inspired to become a superb craftsman. He maintained a studio in Weston, Connecticut and lived into his 90s.
