Printed on thin tissue paper, this color woodcut by Leo F. Dorn shows a winter dawn, and its pencil signature and date of 1927 suggest the artist personally approved this impression. Color woodcuts enjoyed a revival in the United States and Europe during the 1920s, when artists cut a separate block for each hue and pressed them one over another to build up a scene. Snow and early-morning light were favored subjects of the period, and the delicate paper gives the snowy landscape a quiet, soft-edged look worth studying up close.
