Plate transfer drawing for the 1920 etching and aquatint, " A Swordfisherman, Nantucket"; also called "Nantucket Schooner" and " A Sword Fisherman."Titled in pencil, lower right. This drawing came directly from the Estate of John Taylor Arms. Being transfer drawings means these drawings were used to create the copper plate that printed the etching. As any object that is used in this fashion, they often have a variety of condition issues. They are, however, unique works created by the artist. 20th Century Subjects, Marine, Watercolors, Drawings & Paintings
