About the Item
Biographical information on Maurice Robert Dey is hard to find. He was born on 1899 (or maybe 1900), in Switzerland. As an adult he lived and worked in Woodstock, the NY artists' community. (Surely there were colleagues and a print group, so I'm still hopeful about more information.)
There are about 10 images of this format, mostly listed as wood engravings although I'm going to linocut with this particular work. All the scenes I've found have been rural subjects or the great Hudson River itself. Were it not for the WPA there might not even be these few precious subjects. Although this work has the WPA stamp -- usually meaning an edition of 25 -- I can't find it any collections so perhaps it never really was editioned.
Signed and titled in pencil, with the WPA, New York State stamp.
