Toward the end of the 1930's Survage style focused on symbols and mysticism, conforming once again to the control of the geometric structure. The current lot is a pristine example of Survage's 1930's stylistic period, with bold lines and forms.CONDITIONObserved in frame, the painting appears in very good condition.
