Solitude
Lithograph,1917, 440 x 393 mm., Bellows 61, Mason 37, edition of 60. Bellows describes his only lithographic night scene as "Central Park on a spring night. Love genuine and make believe." This is perhaps the most solitude one can usually find in a public park. In addition, the concept of being alone in a crowd is embodied in the presence of the friendless man on the left. A fine impression on china paper with full margins, signed, titled and numbered in pencil, slight creasing mainly in the margins, masking tape hinges in the edges.
