"Rebel", Rare Art Nouveau/Symbolist Print w/ Male Nude by Emma Goitein Dessau
About the Item
A rare work by Emma Goitein Dessau, this color print entitled "Born to Work -- Rebel," depicts a kneeling nude male figure in chains, in the foreground, rebelling against the roiling crowd of nude figures behind him, all caught up in the crush of work and toil. The artist was clearly protesting the demands of modernity, and the toll it was taking on humanity, using a parade of beautifully captured nude figures to make her point. Goitein was German Jewish by birth, studied in Monaco, and then spent much of her career working in Perugia, Italy. She was the only woman among the exhibitors at a major international show of woodcut prints hosted by Levanto in 1912. In 2018, the Pietro Vannucci Academy of Fine Arts and the Municipality of Perugia organized an exhibition of Dessau's work. The print is inscribed and signed. Dimensions include matte and frame; visible print is 9 inches high by 13.25 inches wide.
