Untitled (Interior of Subway Car) 1923

Max Arthur Cohn's 1923 etching, "Untitled (Interior of Subway Car)" depicts the mundane reality of urban life in a subway car. The work's realism is achieved through detailed hatching, capturing the textures of clothing and the cramped confines of the subway car. The four figures, etched in black and white, appear isolated and lost in their own thoughts. The artwork offers a glimpse into everyday life in New York City during the early 20th century.
