Representing the first comprehensive overview of Jerry Bywaters' prints and printmaking career, Niewyk's study will serve as an introduction to the artist's work with lithographic and block prints. Art historians and collectors interested in Texas art will find it an invaluable reference tool. Thirty-four black-and-white lithographs and five full-color block prints are reproduced, in addition to Bywaters' book illustrations, many of his ephemeral works, and photographs of the artist and his subjects.
