"The Philosopher's Heir" Caricature Print by Henry Major (1889-1948)
In a wonderful vintage painted wood frame, the print is in excellent condition behind glass. A card on the back has the title of the work and the artist, reading The Philosopher's Heir by Henry Major.
The back also has a sticker from the professional framer. The brown paper on the back shows water marks and some tears but none that got through the layers and damaged the print itself. The wooden frame has some scratches that give it a vintage patina, and do not in my opinion distract from the curiosity and interest of the print.
Information about the artist, Henry Major, per the Smithsonian:
Caricaturist, painter. Born in Hungary in 1889, Henry Major moved to the United States after a career as a caricaturist in Vienna and London. He became well known throughout the 1920's for traveling around the country caricaturing local politicians, businessmen and actors. He devoted his later years to painting.
13.5" x 10.5" (16.5" x 13.5")
