Harmon Foundation · 1931 · New York : Harmon Foundation · 25 pictures

An exhibition catalogue published in 1931 in New York by the Harmon Foundation, presenting the work of African American artists for a general art-viewing public. The four pictures are halftone reproductions of portrait paintings and drawings of individual sitters, shown as head-and-shoulders studies in soft sepia tones. A designer might take from them the warm monochrome palette, close cropping and tonal modelling of the faces.
