Symphonic Conductor
Sheffield Kagyca. 1936-1937
Cleveland Public Library
Cleveland, United States
Perhaps a unique attempt to represent sound in a linocut, this print introduces remarkable gradations of mood and focus in both the musicians and the conductor while also representing surface and form using techniques more often used on plates. The print is stamped 'Federal Art Project No. 1'. Signed Sheffield Kagy in pencil in lower right; title in lower left.
