Title: "Mountain Sheep & Koshare".
Medium: Original color woodcut.
Date: 1939. Printed 1939.
Lot Note(s): Signed with the red seal/signature stamp, lower right. A proof impression aside from the proposed edition of 480 (of which all were printed?). Cream wove handmade paper. Wide margins. Fine, strong impression. Baumann cut and printed the block himself. Although most of his carving was done in basswood, the block for this woodcut was carved from common pine. Fine condition; affixed to very thin and supple archival acid-free support sheet, not mount/board. Provenance: Private collection, Santa Fe, New Mexico. Overall size: 5 1/16 x 7 in. (129 x 178 mm). Baumann created this image based on a pictograph found in a cave in Frijoles Canyon, New Mexico, and included it in his “Frijoles Canyon Pictographs.” A foremost printmaker as well as painter, he was one of the leading figures of the color woodcut revival in America in the first half of the 20th Century.
