Raphael Soyer (1899-1987) "Joan"
Raphael Soyer (1899-1987) Lithograph on Wove Paper, titled "Portrait of Joan" and printed in 1967, piece measures 14.75 x 10.5 and 27.5 x 20 inches w/ frame, signed in pencil lower right and numbered 150/150 on bottom left, Dark full print with perfect margins. Provenance: Miami Beach Collection. Raphael Soyer comment on this print "That's a young woman who posed for me a long time ago. She was interested in the avant-garde theater and literature. Her name was Joan O'Malley. I have lost track of her. She was a friend of Diane diPrima, who is a poet. I did this print for Associated American Artists." Drawing on his own immigrant experience, Raphael Soyer sensitively portrayed a vast swath of working-class and homeless men and women during the Great Depression and in the decades following World War II. Affiliated with both the Fourteenth Street School and the Social Realists, Soyer's presentation of the plight of the urban population resisted overt politic statements and instead probed the psychological toll of growing consumer capitalism. An ardent opponent of abstraction, which during the 1940s and 1950s was ascendant, Soyer insisted on a humanistic realism in order to communicate with his viewers.Soyer, along with artists such as Reginald Marsh and Isabelle Bishop, kept alive and expanded the tradition of figurative painting. Their urban subjects and their sympathetic depictions have received new scholarly attention and can be related to the international reprise of figurative painting after World War II.
