From World Cat: "A record of the past life of the Jews in Kolo, near Lodz, Poland in 14 lithographs. Harry Daniels grew up in the little town of Kolo, Poland. He emigrated to the USA and spent his remaining years in New York City and the (truncated) Catskill Mountains of New York. His paintings, serigraph paintings, lithographs, handmade prints, and portfolios are a record of a segment of the past life of the Jews in Kolo. Harry Daniels is a listed artist, whose work may be found in the Jewish Museum in New York City, and in the Jewish Museum in Belgium. These prints and serigraphs were hand made by Harry Daniels in his studio in the Catskill Mountains. Sadly, his studio burned to the ground shortly after his death and the original plates were destroyed in the fire. Few of his prints survive." With reminiscences by Manet Katz and Moses Soyer, as well as a personal statement by Daniels. Text in both English and Hebrew. (Inventory #: 133966)
