Lithograph Titled Bedtime. Signed By Raphael Soyer (1899-1987)

Soyer's interest in depicting his urban environment was expressed early in his career in works such as Sixth Avenue (ca. 1930-1935, Wadsworth Atheneum). As the Depression continued, the artist turned more and more to subjects directly related to the prevailing economic difficulties. One result of the mass unemployment of the 1930s that caught the great artist’s imagination was the new role of independent working women. Mother seen from the rear facing a doorway cradling a small child with large sunken circular eyes. Circa 1937. Matted and framed. Site size: 17.75” H x 10.25” W.
