Harlem Nights #1 c. 1933

"Harlem Nights #1" is a woodcut print by Richard A. Loederer created around 1933. The artwork depicts a stylized silhouette of a woman dancing in a nightclub, captured in a dynamic pose with arms raised high. The use of black and white creates a strong contrast and emphasizes the movement of the figure against the dark background. This piece reflects the vibrant nightlife of Harlem in the 1930s and is a striking example of Loederer's skill in capturing movement and atmosphere through woodcut techniques.
