"Forever Fled, " Rare Color Print by Grace Genoi Pettit

About the Item

The ecstatic sensuality and limpid nudity of this rare 1946 print by Pettit clearly shows her debt to Picasso, who led the return to classical and mythological themes in the 1920s and 1930s following the end of the First World War. The print is executed in rich, saturated colors, and is signed and dated.
