"Fallen Tree" by Louis Lozowick, Amer. (1892-1973)

Lithograph, 1929, F.25, Ed. of 20,  9-1/2 x 11-15/16, signed, numbered and dated in pencil, on cream wove paper. An early Succasunna, New Jersey riverside scene by Lozowick, American master of lithography with a distinctily precisionist style. Here Lozowick creates a a bold and masterfully drawn suburban image of a tree, dislodged from it's grassy river bank and partially submerged in the water, offering  discreet cover for the two attentive turtles basking in the sun at lower left. Though the tree provides the dominant subject, it's a wonderful image for any turtle lover.
