Jacobs, Abrahamca. 1936
Cleveland Public Library
Cleveland, United States
Abraham Jacobs, a painter and printmaker, was active in Cleveland from about 1930 to 1937, but whose artistic career remains largely unknown. Jacobs??? works exhibit a passionate concern for the downtrodden, the disenfranchised, and the persecuted, seldom expressed with such fervor, even during the Depression, in the work of other Clevelanders. The print is stamped "Federal Art Project." Signed Abraham Jacobs in pencil in lower right; title in lower left.
