13: NORMA BASSETT HALL (1890-1957) PPM GIFT PRINT FOR 1943

Norma Bassett Hall (1890-1957)
La Gaude - France (1943)
The exceptional color wood block print from an edition of 200 is signed by the artist in pencil lower right below the image and titled lower left. This is an exceptional example with strong, well-saturated and unfaded colors and a strong impression.

This image served as the thirteenth Prairie Print Makers Presentation Print for distribution to associate members and sale to the organization's membership.
Image measures 7 x 9.5, sheet is 9.75 x 12, and frame is 16.5 x 18.25 inches.
Good though complicated condition, the full untrimmed sheet, not laid down, the right corner very thin or possibly replaced with mulberry paper, the upper left with chip and thinning, a very faint outline from the toning of a previous mat, a very few scattered points of foxing. The paper has repairs but the print has beautiful original color without fading or loss. This print is framed to archival standards in acid free mounts.
Provenance: A Leawood, Kansas corporate collection.
$800 - $1,200
