Kent Hagerman
Fine Etching of Municipal (Midway) Airport Chicago by Kent Hagerman

ca. 1951

About the Item

A fine & captivating etching of Municipal (Midway) Airport Chicago by artist Kent Hagerman. Artwork size: 7" x 10". Archivally matted to 12" x 16". Kent Hagerman, also known as William Kay Hagerman, was born in Ohio in 1893. He studied at the Cleveland School of Art and the Sorbonne in Paris while serving in France during World War I. He began his career producing newspaper and magazine illustrations. He and his brother Gale operated an engraving company in Denver. Since Hagerman seldom dated his work, it is difficult to tell when specific prints were made. However, his early works were signed "Will Kay Hagerman", and from the early 1940's onward, his signature was "Kent Hagerman." Kent Hagerman and his wife Carrie moved to Lakeland, Florida in 1933. Besides the many fine etchings, Hagerman made sculptures and bas-reliefs of local leaders. He died three years after his wife's death in 1978 at the age of 85. An exhibit of his work was shown at the 1985 Lakeland City Centennial celebration. Information pertaining to this exhibit is in RG 3600, Lakeland Centennial. Included in the Lakeland Public Library collection are drawings, listed alphabetically, and two framed etchings. Source: Askart, Lakeland Public Library-Special Collections

Les Belles et la Bête: Before the Hunt
By Peter Milton
Located in Middletown, NY
Resist ground etching and engraving on cream wove paper, 22 x 39 inches (558 x 990 mm), full margins. Signed, titled, dated, and numbered 27/160 in pencil, lower margin. With the blindstamp of the printer, Robert E. Townsend, in the lower left margin. A beautiful, richly inked impression of this highly detailed, large image. In very good condition with minor mat tone, extremely minor scattered light surface soiling, and one pin-point sized dot of brown discoloration on the lower left margin, recto, well outside of image area. [Milton 99]. Milton states that there is a metaphorical evolution at the root of his body of graphic work, and with Les Belles et la Bête, Before the Hunt, he found himself at a crossroads that he viewed as a sort of artistic adolescence, which he felt demanded a natural examination of mysteries of sexual awakening. The image is brimming with fantastical images and metaphors for the confrontation of sexual exploration; a Freudian analyst appears in the left of the image, scattered tableaus of paired figures...
