Petroglyph - Human Figures 1935 - 1942

"Petroglyph - Human Figures" (1935-1942) is a colored lithograph by American artist Lala Eve Rivol. The piece features three stylized human figures depicted in a primitive, almost childlike style against a textured brown background. The use of bold outlines and contrasting colors suggests a connection to petroglyphs, rock carvings found in prehistoric sites, which often depict human figures, animals, and geometric patterns. This work exemplifies Rivol's interest in exploring ancient cultures and their artistic expressions through her own unique artistic language.
