About the Item

The Greek-American artist George Constant is known for his modernist approach to traditional subject matter. This portrait of a young woman holding a book titled "When We Were Very Young," is typical of his work, although perhaps more introspective than usual. A drypoint, this print was published in an edition of 25 for the NYC-WPA and has that stamp. It is also signed in pencil.
