the Harpies, the Snatchers,, [1984-1985?]

Lubell 6/10: 92

Colored white line woodcut print of a four-part polyptych, with each image of a harpy, a bird woman from Greek mythology. While harpies are frequently depicted as monstrous, these are far more serene, with beautiful, multicolored plumage (along with their noted talons, all in black ink). Two of them carry people in flight, the other two stand on the ground. Signed Winifred Lubell. See woodblock titled Harpies (Lubell 445, Box 25).
