STREET SCENE is an original, hand drawn lithograph by Raphael Soyer, the renowned Russian-born American realist painter, draftsman, and printmaker. Printed using traditional lithography printmaking techniques on archival Arches paper 100% acid free paper, signed and numbered in pencil. STREET SCENE portrays a realistic drawing of a casual gathering of young men and women; one woman wearing a light olive cardigan sweater, rose print dress, and shoulder bag, two women wearing A-line skirts, one casually looks sideways toward the viewer. Soyer's drawing style possesses a dynamic graphite pencil quality and quiet intimacy. Raphael Soyer is best known for picturing poverty stricken victims of the Great Depression in New York City, also for creating images of everyday urban life and of the nude female body.

Moses Soyer (December 25, 1899 – September 3, 1974) was an American social realist painter. Soyer was born in Borisoglebsk, Russian Empire, in 1899. His father was a Hebrew scholar, writer and teacher. His family emigrated to the United States in 1912. Two of Soyer's brothers, Raphael (his identical twin) and Isaac were also painters. Soyer's wife, Ida, was a dancer, and dancers are a recurring subject in his paintings.
