Vintage 1945 Leroy Burket Cubist Lithograph | Signed Mid-Century Modern Abstract Figural Art | Surrealist Black & White Print

A little Picasso energy, a lot of vintage intrigue!

This striking 1945 lithograph by Leroy Burket features an intricate Cubist composition of overlapping figures, bold geometric shapes, and expressive linework. With its surrealist influences and dramatic black-and-white palette, this piece is a fascinating example of mid-century modernist art.

The composition is full of movement and unexpected details, from abstracted faces and exaggerated limbs to intricate textures and playful forms. The warm, naturally aged paper adds even more vintage character.

Signed and dated “Leroy Burket ’45” in pencil along the lower margin.

A fabulous statement piece for a gallery wall, an eclectic art collection, or a thoughtfully layered vintage interior. Especially lovely paired with antique brass, sculptural ceramics, and other collected treasures.
