Blanche Lazzell — The Monongahela At Morgantown
Blanche Lazzell

The Monongahela At Morgantown

A sweeping view of the Monongahela River winding through the hilly landscape surrounding Morgantown, West Virginia, rendered in Lazzell's distinctive modernist style. Bold, simplified forms and flattened planes of color reflect her deep engagement with the Provincetown printmaking movement, even as she turns her eye toward her Appalachian roots. The composition balances geometric abstraction with a sense of regional identity and personal connection to place.
