Description: Vintage Ken Davis Original Etching Or Engraving Print 1972 Boys Sitting On Fence This vintage 1972 print appears to be either an original engraving or etching and depicts two pre-teen or teenage boys sitting on a fence in front of a dark black amorphic background shape. It is signed Ken Davis but I wasn't able to find anything online. I think the print is likely meant to make a statement regarding the Vietnam War based upon the title and the boy on the right having what appears to be a peace symbol on his upper right shoulder however I cannot confirm or guarantee. Will make a great addition to your printmaking collection and will blend perfectly in collections ranging from Midwestern originals to Mid Century and more. It does have wear including heavy yellowing & discoloring from not being framed/matted with acid free materials, fading and MORE so PLEASE read complete details below and review photos closely for condition. Thank you and enjoy!
