Will Barnet (American, 1911-2012) color lithograph on Somerset paper, "Peter Grimes," 1983. Two women in black and seen from behind look out over what appears to be a body of water while a third figure sits to their left, partially obscured by rocky forms that fill the foreground. From the 1984 Metropolitan Opera Fine Art II portfolio. Signed, dated, and numbered 195/250 in pencil, lower margin. Printed by American Atelier and co-published by Circle Fine Art and Metropolitan Opera Association, with American Atelier and Metropolitan Opera Association blind stamps to lower corners and printed publisher information plus copyright date en verso. Unframed. Sheet: 30 in. H x 22 in. W. Note: This image is a reference to a section from the narrative poem "The Borough" by George Crabbe and a subsequent opera by Benjamin Britten.
