Raphael Soyer, Lithograph on Paper, Woman and Child - Signed
Striking black and white lithograph on paper by noted American social realist artist Raphael Soyer (1899-1987), signed in graphite at lower right. The composition features a tender scene of a standing woman cradling a child, with a young boy to her left. The artwork is further enriched by a handwritten passage from the Book of Amos (IX:7), rendered in both English and Hebrew: "Are you not as the children of the Ethiopians unto me, O children of Israel?" Executed in expressive, gestural lines, this print exemplifies Soyer's enduring empathy for the human condition and his deeply personal interpretation of social themes. Professionally matted.
