William Gropper studied with Robert Henri and George Bellows in NYC and he was influenced by the graphic work of the greats, Goya and Daumier. All this is apparent when you see Gropper’s work. And there is a litho, “Young Attorney,” for sale in Warren Philips gallery right now for somewhere near 500 bucks. I love how animated the four characters are, how distinct their expressions are. I love the cop’s pose and the lumpy defendant. This thing is a steal.
While you’re there you can take in the Rochester Print Club’s annual Member’s Show. It was our favorite stop on last night’s First Friday run.
