"Looking Down - Diablo Dam" circa 1935, Woodcut. Edition: Number 5 of 50. Signed in pencil, W. D. Inverarity (Wallace Duncan Inverarity), lower right; titled and numbered, lower left. Image: 7 1/8 x 5 1/2 inches (180 x 140 mm). Sheet: 8 3/8 x 6 inches (212 x 152 mm).
Excellent condition. Narrow margins. Printed on light weight Japan
paper. Of the two Inverarity prints presented here both probably date from the same
period. Their style, ink, paper, penciling,
matting tape, etc., all seem to agree on close kinship. Wallace
Duncan Inverarity, signing his work, W. D. Inverarity, was the older brother of Robert Bruce Inverarity, artist, and
state WPA Project Director stationed in Seattle, Washington
(1937-1941).
