Born in Morrisville, NC, Mabel Pugh studied at Peace College (then Peace Institute) in Raleigh from 1907 until 1913. After leaving Peace, she continued her art studies at Columbia University, the Art Students League (New York), and the Pennsylvania Academy of Fine Arts. Her work was very well received, with numerous woodblock prints and paintings exhibited across the country and gracing numerous book jackets. She returned to Raleigh in the 1930s where she served as head of Peace College's Art Department from 1938 until 1960.

Some sheet rippling and few creases (mostly inherent to paper thinness); some slight toning; not examined out of frame.
