Titled "The Giant", black & white litho of a large male figure walking down a busy street while passersby stop and stare, titled & pencil signed. Peggy Brook Bacon was active/lived in New York, Maine, Connecticut, and is known for genre painting, caricature, illustrations. A print maker, illustrator, and author of children's books, Peggy Brook Bacon later turned exclusively to fine art painting in watercolor, pastel, and oil. Her 1934 book of caricatures, Off With Their Heads, established her as a leading satirist. Much of her work is satirical and lighthearted and frequently a commentary on the New York art world in the 1920s and 1930s. She also chose many ordinary events in the lives of city people, giving these pieces a wry twist. Overall size: 19 3/4 x 14 3/4 in. Image size: 12 1/4 x 8 3/4 in. #1160 #67 Location KB7
