Dox Thrash
American
1893-1965

Dox Thrash was an important African-American artist, painter, and printmaker. He studied at the Art Institute of Chicago and settled in Philadelphia in 1929. During the depression, Thrash joined a printmaking workshop sponsored by the WPA and developed the carborundum printmaking technique. Thrash was also a noted painter. Thrash's subjects varied from depression-era social realism to landscapes featuring ramshackle buildings and barns, often of his native Georgia. This painting (oil paintings are rarely available) is an outstanding example of Thrash's landscape work.
