"In the summer of 1915, the West Virginia-born artist Blanche Lazzell moved to Provincetown, Massachusetts, and joined a group of printmakers who would come to be known as the Provincetown Printers. Using Japanese print techniques as a starting point, these Provincetown artists pursued a new method of printing from a single block. Lazzell, who worked in a variety of media, became expert in this "white-line" woodcut technique, and the prints she created helped bring national recognition to the Provincetown school. Through her studies in Paris, she brought a modern flair to her woodcuts - and, along with Georgia O'Keeffe, was one of the first American women artists to work in a modernist style.". "Published to accompany an exhibition at the Museum of Fine Arts, Boston, From Paris to Provincetown tells the story of both Lazzell and the remarkably innovative circle of which she was a part."--BOOK JACKET.
