DANCERS RESTING

Cadmus, Paul. DANCERS RESTING. Davenport 55. Color Lithograph with additional hand-coloring with crayon (I am advised by Judy Mensch, who assisted with the printing of this edition, that althouhg the word "crayon" is used by Davenport and others, in fact, the hand-coloring was done with colored pencils), 1974. Artist's Proof in addition to the edition of 40. Signed and inscribed "artist's proof" upper right. 22 x 15 1/2 inches (image). 28 1/8 x 20 1/2 inches (sheet). Provenance Midtown Payson Galleries, NY, and Louis Newman Galleries, LA, with their labels on the verso of the frame backing. This is the largest of Cadmus's prints, and his only color lithograph, as well as the only one which, as part of the edition, includes hand-coloring; its imagery and execution are very similar to those of his "NM" series of drawings. In excellent condition, framed.
