A catalogue of an exhibition of woodcuts by John J. A. Murphy : shown at the Galleries of Messrs. Frederick Keppel & Co. ... January the Fifth to January the Thirty-first, Nineteen Hundred and Twenty-two
An exhibition catalogue issued in New York in 1922 by Frederick Keppel & Co. to present woodcuts by the Irish-born American printmaker John J. A. Murphy, shown for a January run at the gallery. The four pictures are small black-and-white woodcuts with bold white gouged lines, stylised figures and foliage packed into square or upright blocks, offering a designer examples of compact, high-contrast relief patterning that reads well at small sizes.
