Title:	Together
Artist:	Jules, Mervin (Born, Philadelphia, 1912 - Died, 1994)
Date:	c. 1950 - 1960
Medium:	Original Colour Woodcut
Note:	Mervin Jules: An accomplished American painter, lithographer and woodcut artist, Mervin Jules studied at the Pennsylvania Academy of Fine Arts. Jules began to exhibit his art around 1935, in the midst of the Great Depression. Like most artists of this era, he was allowed to continue with his art due mainly to financial support from Federal Art Projects initiated by Roosevelt. This permitted Jules to experiment with printmaking mediums and he was one of the first American artists (in 1938) to produce original silkscreen prints, along with Harry Gottlieb and Louis Lozowick. During the Second World War, Mervin Jules served with the American military forces for a period of two years.
	After the war, Jules began to extensively exhibit his paintings and original prints throughout the United States. In the latter category he began to favour lithography and the woodcut and produced a number of fine figure studies. Portrayals of the world of music - most particularly jazz and classical - became one of his major themes throughout the 1950's and 1960's. Together is a beautiful example of his art from this period.
	With very few exceptions, Mervin Jules did not number his original prints. All, however, are known to have been published in signed editions of between 100 to 250 impressions. Today, impressions of his original woodcuts and lithographs are included in the permanent collections of the F. Jones Jr. Museum of Art at the University of Oklahoma, the Fine Arts Museum of San Francisco, and the Pennsylvania Academy of Fine Arts, Philadelphia.
