1940s Black and White Lithograph By Francisco Mora, Miner
About the Item
A miner emerges from the shadows of a tunnel in this lithograph by Francisco Mora. He looks overworked and tired. This litho was part of a collection of pieces that were created to attract the attention of an American audience. The Cleveland Museum of art states that workers in Mexican silver mines were a favorite subject of Mora. It was a way to shine a spotlight on social issues for the artist. The lighting technique makes me think of Rembrandt, except that here, Mora hopes to illustrate the class difference between a miner and the rest of society. Printmaking was a way to increase awareness of social issues. There is something poignant about this lithograph, which was acquired at auction. The condition is good, but the framing needs a little conservancy at the back. There were 300 pieces of this print.

"Four at the Table", 1940s American Scene Lithograph by Woman Artist
Located in Philadelphia, PA
One of the most intriguing and mysterious WPA-era prints we have ever offered, this rare, possibly unique work depicts a group of two women and two men in intense conversation at a crude wood table, in a simple room with cracks in the plaster that show the wood lath underneath. The four almost seem like a group on the lam in a film noir from the period, desperately running from a crime of some kind. Two of the four face downward, deeply focused on the subject at hand, and another is lost in thought, a pipe in his mouth. The fourth is most mysterious of all, facing away from the viewer. but clearly animated and in conversation. The artist was Alice Harold Murphy...
