Cleveland Museum of Art

Black and white woodcut print titled Composition Globe by Augustus Peck. The print depicts a scene with a thick black border and a beige background. Inside the border, a group of people are shown in dynamic poses. At the top, two women in short skirts with white spots are jumping or dancing. One woman has her arms raised, and the other has her arms extended to the side. Several men and women are shown below them, some with their arms outstretched or hands on their hips. A man in a hat stands on the left side of the image. The artist's signature and title are written in cursive at the bottom. The numbers 30 and 29 are written in the bottom corners. The image features bold lines and stark contrast between black and white areas.
