Hyman, Moses (American, 1870-?). UNTITLED PORTRAIT. Etching, 1941. printed with platetone. Edition size not stated. Signed in pencil, lower right, and with a presentation inscription, lower left. 9 7/8 x 6 7/8 inches (plate), 11 3/8 x 8 inches (sheet). Printed on paper watermarked "Rives," with deckle on four sides. A striking image, very well achieved, with much of its effect attributable to the wiping of the plate. A crease in the lower left corner, and with evidence of hinging in the top corners, else in excellent condition. We have found little biographical information on this artist, but we have seen etched portraits of Toscanini and of Justice Holmes. We have seen an example of this print offered with the title "Sam."
