Barnet, Will (American 1911-2012). CENTRAL PARK SIESTA. Johnson 1, Cole 1, Szoke 2. Lithograph, 1932. Edition of 10. Titled "Park Scene," numbered 6/10, and Signed and dated "Will Goldberg '32" in pencil, and monogrammed "WG" in the stone. 10 3/8 x 11 1/2 inches, plus margins. In very good condition except for a small loss at the lower right corner of the sheet, far from the image. Johnson does not note an edition size, Cole, followed by Szoke notes the edition as 6. The variances from the catalogues are unsurprising; over time we have noted errors and variances in Cole's catalogues, and we have found other errors in the Szoke catalogue. Additionally, there are known variant titles on other Barnet prints. Barnet's original name was William Bertram Goldberg; he adopted the name Barnet in his 20s, but was still using Goldberg in 1932, the year he turned 21, as evidenced by the monogram in the image of this work.
