(20th century) Theban Archaeopteryx Lithographica lithograph edition of 15 signed Barbara Trupp was born in Nebraska and spent her childhood in Montana. She studied at the Banff Centre School of Fine Arts in Alberta, Canada; the University of Puget Sound; and the University of Michigan. Theban Archeaopteryx Lithographica was printed at the Plucked Chicken Press in Evanston, Illinois. “The stone is the shape of the Rosetta Stone, unlocking language, [a] key to the past,” says Tripp. “Wouldn’t it be wonderful if you came across a stone, chipped at it, and revealed layer upon layer of visual history, images from sophisticated Egypt back to Paleozoic trilobites? “Lithography stones, quarried from the Jura Mountains of Bavaria, reach us from the Jurassic period of the Mesozoic, bearing fossils of the first birds.

Trilobites represent a breathtaking explosion of Cambrian life forms. Between Archaeopteryx and Egypt, I wanted mammals. Petroglyphs. Human marks. Because my right hand is the trained hand, I drew with my left, childlike. And I drew with a stick, dipped in asphaltum, and a ratty old brush...
