Rare Social realist painting by Raphael Soyer from the 1940s. This painting is documented in the October 1948 issue of Seventeen magazine, as can be seen in the images. The buyer of the painting will also receive an original copy of this magazine.
A very desirable painting by this celebrated American Social Realist. The large size of the work further heightens its presence and appeal. The painting is in excellent original condition and presented in a hand carved frame. Truly Museum Quality... Please inquire.
Inscribed: "For my old schoolmate Bob Philipp, Raphael Soyer, 1946." Can't beat the subject for Soyer. One artist paying homage to another. This work perfectly captures the mid century New York artists scene.
