"Lithograph #41 (Visionary City)" is a 1931 lithograph by American artist William Samuel Schwartz. Created in a stylized, geometric style reminiscent of Art Deco, the artwork depicts a city skyline as a mountainous mass, with simplified buildings rising towards the sky. The cityscape is contrasted with rolling hills in the foreground, creating a sense of scale and perspective. This piece reflects the rapid urbanization and architectural innovation of the early 20th century, offering a fascinating glimpse into Schwartz's vision of the modern city.
