A Moonlight Swim 1952

"A Moonlight Swim" is a 1952 lithograph by Warrington Colescott, a prominent American artist known for his unique blend of abstraction and figuration. The print features five figures, their bodies rendered in vivid, angular shapes against a dark, almost nocturnal background. The vibrant colors, particularly the use of contrasting red and green, create a sense of energy and movement. Colescott’s work often explored themes of race and identity, and "A Moonlight Swim" is a testament to his artistic mastery and ability to depict the human form in an unconventional, expressive manner.
