Sadness Art Print

Entitled “Helen” and dated 1962 by intaglio print artist Alvin Dunkle this sad art print etching is an original piece of vintage wall art with dark and moody energy. It is ideal for certain types of modern or contemporary rooms and environments looking for a unique and original addition to their wall art decor.

Dunkle is best known for his two-tone etchings and prints, which have been included in museums and galleries, including the Fine art museum of San Francisco. In addition to being a well-respected artist, Dunkle taught printmaking and painting at Thiel College in Greenville, PA, for over 30 years, inspiring other artists in the tradition of expression and creative painting, sculpture, and printmaking.

This work focused on a lone character in a half profile portrait, most of the image coved in shadow and dark wash. An alluring work, this work would certainly fit into a variety of modern or contemporary settings, including a reading room, modern coffee room, or coffee shop wall art, or any other interior where there is a need for simple colors and subjects without a vibrant color palette.
