Reginald Marsh Marsh was born in Paris but studied art at Yale University and continued at the Art Students League in New York. One of the foremost artists of the Ashcan group, he became involved with drawing masses of people during the economic depression of the 1930's, portraying them in his lithographs, etchings, drypoints, and engravings. Between 1928 and 1935, Marsh, produced 236 prints. Thirty of these were lithographs of steam locomotives, a subject he thoroughly enjoyed watching and drawing on paper. Marsh's powerful graphic works revealing people in the streets, the theater, beaches, subways, and burlesque shows, rates him as one of America's finest draftsman and printmakers.
