Untitled (At The Beach) c. 1935

"Untitled (At The Beach)" is a black and white woodcut print by Harriet Keese Lanfair, created around 1935. The print depicts a group of five figures, likely children, relaxing on a beach. The composition is intimate, with the figures' bodies overlapping, creating a sense of closeness and shared experience. Lanfair’s use of strong, bold lines and contrasting areas of light and dark emphasizes the figures’ forms and the textured surface of the beach. The print’s simple design and focus on the human figure are characteristic of Lanfair’s work, which often explored themes of social commentary and human relationships. This print is a powerful example of the expressive potential of woodcut printmaking.
