About the Item

This work depicts the trolley on Sunday in downtown Philly. The image measures 10 ½ x 13 ½ inches, is archivally matted and unframed. This print is titled in pencil lower left “Sunday Trolley” and pencil signed lower right. This wonderful lithograph is in excellent condition.
Albert Gold studied at the Philadelphia Museum School of Industrial Art (now University of the Arts). In 1935, at the age of 19, he began exhibiting his work in group shows and in 1939 his work was exhibited at the New York World's Fair. He was one of the artists represented in the 1942 Metropolitan Museum of Art exhibition, Artists for Victory. In 1942 Gold joined the Army Corps of Engineers, and was appointed as one of twelve combat artists assigned to document the war, and one of only three artists serving in the European Theater of Operations. He served in Great Britain to "make a pictorial record of the development of US military concentrations" as well as in France and Germany. In 1942 he was awarded the Prix de Rome Medal by the American Academy of Rome.
Gold was known for depicting everyday life in his city, Philadelphia. He practiced printmaking, drawing and painting in watercolor and oils, but he excelled at printmaking. He was instrumental in establishing the illustration department at his alma mater and received numerous art awards throughout his career.

By Moses Soyer
Located in Surfside, FL
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. Soyer studied art in New York, first at Cooper Union and later at the Ferrer Art School, where he studied under the Ashcan painters Robert Henri and George Bellows.
