Peggy Bacon, Clare Leighton and Mid Twentieth Century Prints in Wellfleet
Wellfleet was a mecca for New York and New England artists who summered on Cape Cod and produced etchings, drypoints,  lithographs, and woodcuts in great numbers of the town, the beaches and the countryside in the middle of the last century.  Two artists who loved the area Peggy Bacon, who did twenty eight drypoints  called the Wellfleet series and Clare Leighton whose extraordinary wood engravings chronicled the town, are part of an exhibit featured at the Wellfleet Public Library from June 8 to 28, 2013. In addition, work by George Grosz, Stow Wengenroth and many others are on display.
