Charles Bragg In the Beginning There Were Mistakes Signed Lithograph on Paper

About the Item

A humorous surreal lithograph titled “In the Beginning There Were Mistakes” by Charles Bragg. Hand signed in pencil on the bottom right, titled mid-bottom, with an annotation of 135/200 bottom left.

Charles Bragg (1931-2017) was an American sculptor, painter, artist, and author. His success came from the humor and satirical style of his work, which often portrayed flaws in American society. His political opinions are featured in his work. Bragg has referred to himself as a "devoted student of the human race" and an "observer." Bragg's works have been showcased in museums and exhibits around the world, and he has had work commissioned by Playboy magazine. From a private collection.

His portrayals of derelicts, working people, and the unemployed around Union Square during the Depression reveal more of a poignant vision of the human condition than the art of social protest popular with many of his contemporaries. Throughout his life Soyer painted people his friends, himself, studio models with an unerring eye...
