About This Item
New York: Associated American Artists, 1932. Near fine. Image: 8 7/8 x 11 7/8". Paper: 11 1/4 x 16 1/2. Original etching and drypoint. Signed in pencil. Limited edition. (N.A. but 250) Signed by Costigan. Rich, clear image. Hinged at top corners.
A native of Providence, Rhode Island, John Costigan was a skilled landscape and figure painter who disdained portraits because "the subjects want flattering pictures."
"Mainly self-taught, Costigan studied briefly at the Art Students League and worked as a lithographer of theater posters. From that job he learned the printing processes that he later used in his many etchings. He began making his name in the fine arts in 1920, and throughout the decade, reaped numerous important prizes for his oils, watercolors and prints."-askart.
