Gustave Baumann Art
American, German, 1881-1971
Gustave Baumann was born in Magdeburg, Germany, on June 27, 1881. Baumann immigrated to the USA as a child. He grew up in Chicago but became curious about New Mexico. He visited friends there in 1917 and settled in Santa Fe in 1918. He spent over 50 years there, where he participated in the art community. He created woodblocks from which he made prints and also became a carver of saints and marionettes, working with the Marionette Theatre. Baumann also created numerous paintings in bright colors. His woodcut subjects are church figures, scenes of sacred Indian pictographs and landscapes, including the Grand Canyon. During the 1930s, Baumann was a Works Progress Administration co-ordinator for Santa Fe. He died in Santa Fe on October 8, 1971.

Commentary on the triptych:
In the Edo period, Tanabata was designated as one of the five seasonal festivals, and became an annual event for the imperial court, aristocrats, and samurai families, and gradually came to be celebrated by the general public. Its origins are said to be a combination of the Kikoden festival, which originated from the Chinese legend of Altair and the Weaver Girl, and Japan's ancient Tanabata women's faith. Ink is ground with dew that has accumulated on potato leaves, poems and wishes are written on five colored strips of paper, which are then hung on bamboo branches to celebrate the two stars that meet once a year. Although the illustration is a Genji painting...

MORNING IN MEXICO (RARE UNDESCRIBED STATE)
By Gustave Baumann
Located in Santa Monica, CA
GUSTAVE BAUMANN (1881 -1971)
MORNING IN MEXICO 1934-36 (Chamberlain 143)
Color woodcut, 2nd version after Baumann discarded the first blocks. This version 1936.
POSSIBLY AN UNIQUE VARIANT IMPRESSION. DIFFERS FORM THE IMAGE IN THE CATALOG RAISONNE. Aside from differing colors not uncommon with Baumann, there are also differences in the blocks. The area along the left edge is different e. g. the left edge - elimination of cross hatching below the roof and the elimination of the lower left corner shrub like cross hatching. . There are also differences in the sky with more clouds. Although the intended edition was 125, this print is very scarce and rarely comes on the market.
Very good and fresh impression. No. II - 41 /125. Image, 13 x 13 ¼”, full sheet, 16 7/8 x 14 3/8”, deckle edge. Excellent condition. Provenance: Zaplin Lampert...
