Description: Original drypoint etching, ca. 1940, depicting two boys looking at boats in New York's Hudson River. Fine impression on off-white etching paper. Titled "Adventure Calls", and signed "Elias M. Grossman" in pencil. Grossman (1898 – 1947), arrived in America from the town of Kobryn, then Russia, now Belarus, at the age of thirteen. His father had immigrated to the USA years before but was not able to bring his son until later. After high school, he began working as a hat maker in a shop but began to paint in his spare hours. Eventually he was able to study print making under William Auerbach-Levy, and a job with a newspaper enabled him to travel in Europe, continue art studies, and paint portraits. But New York City remained his home and his representations of it are affectionate portraits of that time and place. Sheet size: 13 1/2 x 11 inches; print size: 7 1/2 x 9 3/4 inches.
