1974 Ben Shahn Collection
A collection of lithographs from 1974 by the Lithuanian-born American artist, Ben Shahn (1898 -1969). The images created for this collection are from a limited edition of only 950 copies. This edition is unnumbered. The original lithographs were created for a portfolio based on Shahn’s reactions to Rainer Maria Rilke’s poetry in Rilke's autobiographical novel entitled “The Notebooks of Malte Laurids Brigge.” The images were reproduced in 1974 to bring his work to the public.
