Label TextIn the early 20th century, Hart traveled all over the world: to Mexico, Central America, North Africa, and the South Pacific. He sketched and painted in watercolor while traveling, and in the 1920s he mined these sketches for material when he took up printmaking. This print won an award at the annual exhibition of the Brooklyn Society of Etchers.
