"Mower" by the famous Edward McCluney belongs to a limited series of 260 prints. The lithograph is numbered 234 out of the 260 and is in a simple sliver frame. The image is of an antique horse drawn hay mower buried in the snow. The print depicts the decay of the American way of life and is one of Edward McCluney's most collectable graphic works.

The art piece is pencil signed, titled and numbered on the bottom. The overall size of the framed and matted lithograph is roughly 23" x 21" inches, the silver frame is almost 0.3" inches wide. The etching itself, without the frame and matting is approximately 18" x 16" inches.

An important Afro-American printmaker, in the early 70s, McCluney taught drawing and printmaking for the Elma Lewis School of Fine Arts in Boston. For 17 years McCluney also served as a distinguished and influential Professor in Printmaking at MIT. Following a one-person exhibition at the Museum of the National Center of Afro-American Artists in l973,
the museum acquired a collection of McCluneys' etchings: McCluney had a long history with the National Center of Afro-American Artists, where as an artist in residence in printmaking, he created his Nine American Masters Series.
