content: Mabel Dwight (1876-1955) created this lithograph as part of the Works Progress Administration-Federal Art Project in 1938. The Smithsonian acquired "Backyard" in 1941 as part of a government transfer of 54 prints in various media. The transfer of "Backyard" and other FAP prints came at a time when the Project was shifting its focus from fine-art printmaking to war-related posters.
