Joseph Webster Golinkin
Joseph Webster Golinkin, On the Dock, Banana Boat, New Orleans

1938

About the Item

Chicago-born Golinkin studied at the Artist Students League with George Luks. After working as an illustrator for New York papers he joined the Navy in 1939 and retired as a Rear Admiral after twenty years. He is very comfortable with the 'big picture' -- a New York City skyline or a horse show at Madison Square Garden (his sporting scenes are widely admired). This New Orleans dock scene is a perfect example. There's entire crowd of workers waiting to unload the freighter that's being nudged in by a tugboat. One man is actually eating a banana! Others are reading or shoving or perhaps tending to the two work horses. A richly drawn lithograph, this print is signed in pencil. An impression of this subject is in the collection of the Crystal Bridge Museum, Bentonville, Arkansas.

  • Eli Jacobi, Raritan Bridge (New Jersey)
    Located in New York, NY
    Mostly known linocuts that combine social subjects with a modernist figure-ground style, Jacobi proves that 'artists have hands.' By that my old boss Sylvan Cole meant that even if they have a preferred medium, like Jacobi with linocut, they could do just about anything. And here the artist has made a New Jersey subject shine. The Raritan Bridge of course goes over the Raritan River that flows from the inland mountains (well, hills) of New Jersey to the Raritan Bay and then into the Atlantic Ocean. It was stolen from the Lenape by the Dutch and fought over by the English. It's role in American Industrial History is the stuff of legends. With the addition of a canal it transported anthracite coal from Pennsylvania helping to make the this part of New Jersey into a financial powerhouse. Sadly industry also polluted the entire region but now there is on-going restoration. Of course the bridge is also known to riders of the New Jersey Coast Line and drivers on the Garden State Parkway -- both take travelers 'down the shore,' This twist of heavy industry...
