Child in the City 1938

"Child in the City" is a 1938 lithograph by American artist Lawrence Kupferman. The print depicts a young girl standing alone in a city street, her coat pulled up to her chin. The girl's small figure appears dwarfed by the imposing buildings around her, highlighting the vastness and anonymity of urban life. The work's stark black and white imagery adds to its sense of loneliness and isolation, making it a powerful and poignant commentary on the human condition in a modern world.
