Pen ink and wash on paper. 7-1/4 x 6-1/4 inches. Fine. Pen ink and wash on paper. 7-1/4 x 6-1/4 inches. Original David Fredenthal Drawing for Alfred Eisenstaedt. Detroit-born David Fredenthal (1914-1958), artist, lithographer and illustrator, was one of the civilian artists assigned to the War Department Art Program in 1943; he served in the South Pacific, and later became a LIFE magazine artist-correspondent in the Pacific. The example here is a delicate departure from the artist's heavier, more sombre style. Illustrated in Eisenstaedt's Album (Inventory #: 40495)
