ClassificationsPRINT
Label TextStuart Davis made his earliest prints—including this monotype—under the supervision of his friend John Sloan, an expert printmaker. They reflect his early commitment to depicting city street life. Davis' mature works would combine urban subject matter with Cubist influence in a signature style.
