          • WPA Years: From 1935 to 1940, Levine worked for the Works Progress Administration (WPA), which provided crucial support for artists during the Great Depression. This period allowed him to focus on his art and develop his social commentary.
          • European Influences: A Fulbright grant in 1951 took him to Europe, where he was deeply affected by the Mannerism of El Greco, inspiring him to exaggerate forms for expressive effect.
