Bacon was known for her humorous and ironic etchings and drawings, as well as for her satirical caricatures of prominent personalities in the late 1920s and 1930s. About WPA Prints: "A Treasury of American Prints" was published in 1939 at the onset of WWII, with the intention of being taken apart and the individual plates being framed and displayed. It gave ordinary, working class Americans the opportunity to decorate their homes with the popular art of the period.
