Untitled (Fiesta) 1937

"Untitled (Fiesta)" is a 1937 woodcut by American artist Helen Louise Beccard (1903–1994). The print depicts a bustling scene of a market or fair in Mexico, where vendors sell their wares, and patrons browse and shop. Beccard utilizes a stark black and white palette to depict the lively scene, capturing the energy and rhythm of the event. This dynamic portrayal of a Mexican market reveals Beccard’s interest in depicting the social and cultural fabric of Mexico, which she began developing during her travels in the 1930s.
