This scarce first monograph is dedicated to Lon Chanukoff (1893–1958), the Belarus-born and New York–based sculptor and Yiddish writer. Published in 1964 only a few years after his passing, it presents a rare photographic record of his sculptural work, with an emphasis on his expressive wood carvings. Bound in beige cloth with bold lettering and illustrated throughout with black-and-white plates, the book preserves the legacy of an émigré artist whose work bridged European roots and the Jewish-American art world. Both historically significant and uncommon in the market, it remains the definitive volume on Chanukoff’s sculpture.
