About this artwork

Lion's Head, Bruce Penisula, Ontario, Canada — Kálmán Kubinyi. 1938–39.

Medium: softground etching. Dimensions: Plate: 29.4 x 37.8 cm (11 9/16 x 14 7/8 in.).

Collection record: The Cleveland Museum of Art, Cleveland. Museum connection according to this source; current display unverified.

Lion’s Head is a popular tourist destination known for its scenic limestone cliffs, which are the focal point of Kubinyi’s print. However, the dark lines and shadowy sky result in a landscape that seems more foreboding than scenic. Although Kubinyi was heavily involved in the Works Progress Administration (WPA)’s Federal Art Project, he did not submit this print of a Canadian landscape to the program, possibly because the WPA emphasized American scenes.
