Woodcut (1939) ‘The Monongahela’ is an American
river on the Allegheny Plateau in West Virginia and South Western
Pennsylvania. The name derives from the Native American meaning ‘falling
banks’ (see Monongahela print). Morgantown is in West Virginia, United
States.
In this print particularly we can see why it is that Lazzell is often
hailed as an interpreter of early twentieth century European modernist
trends to an American public. Although it is easy to discern content
here, the style is one step back from the kind of abstract blocks of
colour Lazzell would use in her more fully blown abstract works (see
Biography).
