Morgan (b. 1942), titled \u003cem\u003eNightbird\u003c\/em\u003e and dating to circa 1970. Rendered in a deep, tonal palette characteristic of the mezzotint process, the composition depicts a fantastical bird-like figure with an almost anthropomorphic presence, holding a slender object across its body.\u003cspan class=\"PDq2pG_selectionAnchor\"\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe circular image measures approximately 4 inches in diameter and is signed by the artist and numbered 11\/20, from a notably small edition of just twenty impressions. The intimate scale of the image is emphasized by its generously proportioned matting and original vintage frame, giving the work a quiet, almost medallion-like quality.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eA compelling example of vintage American printmaking, \u003cem\u003eNightbird\u003c\/em\u003e sits somewhere between figuration, symbolism, and surrealism.
