The Art: Art historians have said that the greatest art tradition is art that speaks of the human condition. John Doyle's lithographs, The Great Human Race, much like the oldest art we know, the images recorded by cave artists who fortified their hunting ability and spiritual strength by painting images of the beasts that sustained them, is of this tradition. The Great Human Race is series of portfolios perfected in collaboration with Roland Poska, a Scotland born American artist, master printmaker, and paper-maker. Through images which are rendered in sumptuous colors and subtle gradations of tones, drawing of exquisite detail, and fine quality printing on BFK Rives and handsome hand made colored papers, Doyle art reflects the nobility of the human spirit.
