Lot 156: LA GATTA, JOHN. 1894-1977.

LA GATTA, JOHN. 1894-1977. Collection of 14 sketches, pencil, pen or conte crayon on tracing paper, 300 x 227 mm., c.1960, some toning, minor creases, a few stray marks, but generally very good. An interesting look into the working process of a commercial artist as a number of the pieces are most certainly for advertisements. As with most La Gatta work, the focus is almost universally on women.
