SOYER, RAPHAEL
(b. 1899) American painter whose works enjoy wide popular appeal. Exceptional original signed drawing executed on the 8 1/2" x 11" front pastedown of the book Raphael Soyer Painting and Drawings, by Walter Gutman, Shorewood Publishing, New York, ca. 1963. Soyer's drawing is executed in blue ballpoint and occupies nearly all of the beige pastedown. It depicts a family of six full-length and in the nude, and is titled: "Some family of constitutional inadequates!", dated at New York, 1963, inscribed to "the leonard Lyons's" and signed at left margin. Front flyleaf is lacking, gutter cracked, yet the drawing itself is in fine condition.
