PROVENANCE

fun fact: 


digital description: 


wall description: 
Famous as a sculptor, Smith also made three small groups of prints: linoleum cuts in the late 1920s, etchings in the 1930s and 1940s, and lithographs in the 1950s. Both <em>Untitled</em> and <em>Ballet </em>are rare. These impressions were owned by Smith's first wife, Dorothy Dehner, and were unknown until they were discovered after her death.
