America's Tribute to Britain
Frederic G. Cooper (born 1883) · America's Tribute to Britain, United States, 1918, 1918
Format
Archival pigment giclée on museum-grade matte art paper, color-managed to the source scan — the flat inks and stone grain intact. The 40×60 is the room-changer.
Size
$39.00
What it is
A colour woodcut Frederic G. Cooper designed in 1918, 76 by 51 cm.
Why it matters
The sheet thanks one ally in the emblem of another, the American eagle honouring the British lion. It is the one woodcut among Cooper's sheets in the Atlas; his Food Administration posters are lithographs.
What to notice
An eagle setting a victory wreath on a lion's head.
One emblem crowning another.
