This is a set of Romare Bearden Home & Family Note Cards. There are 20 cards and 20 envelopes. Pomegranate catalog No. 649. Works printed on cards (5 copies of each): Monday Morning (1967), Madeline Jones' Wonderful Garden (1977), Piano Lesson (1983), Falling Star (1979)."A preeminent artist of his generation, Romare Bearden (1911-1988) lived and worked during a period of extraordinary ferment in American society and American art. The diversity of his oeuvre -- including works in collage and photomontage; watercolor, oil, and monotype; designs for the stage and book illustrations; and edition prints -- reflects the excitement and turmoil of his time. Bearden's subjects were based on memories and experiences of the rural South, the urban North, and the Caribbean, and included folk and jazz musicians, street scenes, domestic interiors and landscapes." -- Publisher insert
