Post by: benbenny on March 12, 2014, 07:55:16 am

have 5 frames with etching on paper. think they are signed S. Hurwitz but can't find any info. Can only find a artist with the name Sidney Hurwitz but he makes art of cranes etc.

Hi ipcress and many thanks.. I did find the the sidney Hurwitz but I was a bit confused because I seen that this artist made different etchings then the ones I have.

But the autograph suggest it must be the same artist..   
Case solved...  thank you

It seems he changed subject matter of his work. Artists often do this. The peacock is mentioned online in a collection
Definitely the same artist.
