Provenance
Private collection, New York
Thence by descent

In 1943 the commercial lithography company, E.F. Schmidt, in Milwaukee, Wisconsin, commissioned Lozowick to produce 12 lithographs, to be reproduced as a calendar, one for each month of the year.

Rare. According to Flint, only a few printer's and artist's proofs were pulled.
