Enhance your art collection with this exceptional, museum-quality 1924 modernist lithograph by listed American artist Charles F. Ramus (1902–1979).
Titled "Girl with a Pitcher," this piece is a rare survivor of the early American modern art movement. It is a true first edition, hand-numbered 5 from a remarkably small, limited edition of only 24 prints.
Printed on delicate, high-quality fine rice paper, this striking 100-year-old artwork beautifully captures the post-impressionist and early Art Deco aesthetic of the mid-1920s.

Title: "Girl with a Pitcher"
Date: c. 1924 (First Edition)
Medium: Original Lithograph on Fine Rice Paper
Edition: Limited Edition, No. 5 of 24

Charles F. Ramus was a highly regarded American artist, illustrator, and art historian known for his precise draftsmanship and contributions to early 20th-century printmaking. Because this edition was capped at just 24 impressions, surviving examples in this condition are incredibly scarce. The delicate rice paper adds a beautiful, subtle texture to the stark contrast of the lithograph.
