This is an attractive and elegant poster, issued in 1954 for an exhibition of the works of the ultra famous and important Swiss sculptor, painter and printmaker, ALBERTO GIACOMETTI (1901-1966). Measuring 29" by 20 1/2", it is simply framed in modern metal with glass and no mat. The edition size of this particular poster, titled "Rue d'Alesia", is unknown. It is signed in the stone at lower right...

Lithograph on paper, 7 1/2" by 4 1/2" (13 1/8" by 10" as framed), signed in pencil at lower right by the noted German Jewish artist HERMANN STRUCK (1876-1944). The subject is a man wearing a cap. Struck was born in Berlin or Orthodox Jewish parentage. Early in his life he met the Zionist leader Theodor Herzl (1860-1904), a meeting which profoundly influenced the artist. Struck's most desirable subject matter, scenes of Israel from the late 1920's, have brought to the $25,000 area at auction...

This a modern image was published in 1969. The artist is a major figure in late 20th century art's CoBrA movement, counted as one of the founders of it in 1949...

A rarely seen HAND SIGNED lithograph in black and rich green ink, 22 1/4" by 25" (27" by 30" in simple black framing), dating to circa 1965, by MAQBOOL FIDA HUSAIN (1915-2011), an iconic, world-renowned modern Indian artist often called "the Picasso of India". The handsome print features two images favored by the artists in both painted and graphic works---the horse, and the palm of the hand, both symbolic. Husain was born in India...

An example of the large color lithograph print "Winter Harvest", published 1981 in an edition of 950 examples, pencil signed at lower right margin by the noted Alaskan artist FRED MACHETANZ (1908-2002). This example is numbered 803/950. The supremely patient, stoic Eskimo woman stands above a hole in the ice, and the fish haul is laid out on that ice. The print measures 20 1/2" by 32" inside the mat (one of the artist's larger prints) and 30" by 41" as framed...

Offered together as a pair are TWO limited edition lithographs on paper, each 28 7/8" by 22 1/2", unframed, by a master artist. One, an image of a rock strewn hillside, is numbered at lower left 38/65; the other image, a sketchy portrait of a man, possibly a self portrait, is numbered 42/50...

This is a restrike of the large folio, popular and well-known lithograph "Winter in the Country---The Old Grist Mill" by Currier and Ives. Measurements inside the mat are 18" by 26 1/4", and the piece as framed is 26 1/2" by 33 1/2". The original 19th century lithograph is in the "Best 50" list, and it inspired many paintings after its publication...

Lithograph on paper by American artist STOW WENGENROTH (1905-1978), with blind stamp at lower left, pencil signed at lower right by the artist, bearing "Ed. 65" at lower left, and titled below near the bottom edge of the sheet "SEA GULLS". This is a typical work of Wengenroth, who is today best known for his fine lithography work consisting mostly of scenes of the Northeast coast from Long Island to Maine, and a few images of New York City which are especially sought after...

This is a photolithograph, 21 1/2" by 17" inside the mat window, 28 1/2" by 24 1/4" framed, pencil signed at lower left and with blindstamp there, titled possibly "The Sacred Horse", published by Frost and Reed in England in about the year 1950...

An example of the wildly popular art of artist EDNA HIBEL (1917-2014), internationally known for her art in many media, the themes usually promoting peace, or exploring universal themes such as motherhood. This lithograph print is signed in pencil by the artist at lower right and is numbered at lower left. I believe the title is "Francesca", dating from 1979...

Original lithograph print, 1979, featuring, as the AskArt listing so aptly describes, "joyful scenes that depict the plague of childhood in a childlike way...". The artist was born in La Paz, Bolivia, and was in Europe while very young, receiving art instruction. She trained in printmaking under Johnny Friedlaender. By the mid 1960's she had already received recognition for her work, and in 1979 the UNICEF organization utilized her imagery in a poster...

Lithograph on paper of a clipper ship, 12 1/4" by 9 1/2", unframed, signed by the noted marine illustrator, painter and etcher/lithographer GORDON HOPE GRANT (1875-1962)...

Scarce Currier and Ives lithograph print, sheet size 11" by 15", image area 8 1/2" by 12 3/8", titled "Prairie Hens". This is apparently a scarcer small folio image, as Cohenour prices it over $400 in his Currier price guide. The print is in acceptable condition, with the image area generally clean, and only one tiny spot of foxing visible, although there is a diagonal light crease at upper right corner, visible only when viewed in raking light. The margin area has a small edge tear, age/mat ...

Large size lithograph print in elegant shades of gray, blacks and cream, 34" by 19 1/2", (and 41 1/2" by 26 1/2" in quality mid century frame), numbered 36/95 at lower left, and pencil signed at lower right, by the only recently deceased important Swiss modernist artist, HANS ERNI (1909-2015) . The subject is essentially an allegory of motherhood---a nude standing woman holding in her arms a nursing child. Even among Erni's many lithographs, this particular image stands out as monumental, iconi...

A caricature image of the famous mathematician and physicist Albert Einstein, captured with spare but well-placed lines, by the well-known American Social Realist artist, BEN SHAHN (1898-1969). The print, signed in the plate and also in ink by the artist, nearby at lower right, measures 11 1/2" by 8 1/2" inside the present mat (and 19" by 14 1/2" in present metal frame, can be shipped without glass or unframed). Judging from the near absence of auction records, this is apparently a rather rare...

An example of the 1969 lithograph print, titled variously as "Volcan Fosforescente", ("Phosphorescent Volcano"), numbered in lower left margin 73/250 and pencil signed at lower right, by the famous Mexican 20th century muralist artist DAVID ALFARO SIQUEIROS (1896-1974). This lithograph was printed by Mourlot in Paris. Siqueiros is considered one of the three giants of Mexican twentieth century art, alongside Diego Rivera and Jose Clemente Orozco. He was a social realist artist, always concerned ...

He was a social realist artist, always concer...

An example of the 1913 lithograph "La Mere Chatte" ("The Mother Cat"), 11 3/4" by 9 1/4" inside the mat window, (18 3/4" by 15 1/4"as framed) pencil signed in lower right margin by the important French artist THEOPHILE-ALEXANDRE STEINLEN (1859-1913). Printed in a rich chocolate brown ink, the image appears at first to be of one cat, until one looks more closely, to see an adorable tiny young face emerging behind her in the shadows. The print is signed in the plate at lower left, and a remarque...

This is a fresh and clean example of the 1956 print "The Four Sisters, Chazalet", one of an edition of only 675 examples, signed in pencil at lower right and bearing an characteristic embossed blind stamp and, in the image, (copyright symbol) "F & R (Frost and Reed) at lower left. The print measures 18" by 24" (26 1/2" by 32" as framed). According to information on the net, Chazalet is a small medieval period town in central France near the famed ceramics town of Limoges. WILLIAM RUSSELL ...

This is a hand colored lithograph of the species Petroica Goodenovii (the Red-capped Robin, of central and southern Australia), drawn by the famous 19th century English naturalist, ornithologist and natural history illustrator JOHN GOULD, the lithographic plate produced by his assistant Henry Constantine Richter (1821-1902). Gould's prints of hummingbirds are most likely his most popular, but over a period of many years, especially in the 1830's and 1840's, he produced a number of major works o...

Lithograph on paper, 22 1/4" by 25 7/8" inside the mat (30" by 23" as framed), signed in pencil at lower right and numbered 47/180 at lower left, by important 20th century Spanish artist EMILIO GRAU-SALA (1911-1975). This is an apparently clean example (not examined out of frame) of the lithography of this major European artist, the paintings of whom command well into five figures at auctions in Europe and the USA. The subject is a Parisian looking park, with a number of children and their pa...

Large folio size print, sheet measuring 18 1/4" by 24 1/2" inside the mat, 27 1/4" by 33 1/2" as framed, titled at bottom. This image was produced by Currier in 1868, but I believe this example to be a high quality hand colored RESTRIKE of a later date. It's a great image, with grandparents in their snug Victorian 1860's New England interior, a roaring fire and their granddaughter indicating the other seasons of life. The print is in excellent fresh condition; allow for reflections in glass....

Lithograph, 14" by 21" inside the mat, signed in the stone at lower right, from an unknown edition possibly of about 5,000 examples, the title "Ma de Proverbis", 1970. This is extremely clean and fresh with bright colors not having suffered any fading from light exposure. The piece is accompanied by a bright green mat and simple black metal frame of the period. Allow for reflections in glass.

Lithograph print in elegant gray and white on black paper, 27" by 22", (and 30" by 25" in simple silvered wood modern frame) {UPDATE: may be currently unframed, inquire}, pencil signed at lower right, and numbered 7/100 at lower left. The title is "Daphne and Apollo", the imagery consisting of idealized male and female figures with leafy trees in the background, creating a most interesting and modern composition that looks almost like a "solarized" photo. Considering the complexity of this image...

This is a circa mid 20th century still life lithograph of a pineapple, pomegranate and other fruit, signed in brown ink at lower right and numbered 41/90 at lower left by noted School of Paris artist ROGER CHAPELAIN-MIDY (1904-1992). The artist's works bring into the five figures at auction in the US and Europe, and the still life is his specialty. This print measures 12 5/8" by 9 3/4" (20 5/8" by 17 3/4" as framed). Condition: small abrasion above the pineapple and a few other very small i...

An example of the 1957 poster of a seated nude, titled "Andre Derain Dessins", by Galerie Maeght. The lithograph is framed in a silver metal frame with orange backdrop. Measurements are 25 3/4" by 18 3/4" (30 1/2" by 24 1/4" as framed). Derain was a major French artist in the first half of the twentieth century, renowned early on for his Fauvist works and later for a wealth of works, both drawings and paintings, many of which depicted the female nude. WILL BE SHIPPED WITHOUT GLASS.

Interesting, graphically arresting, colorful original lithograph from 1978, 27" by 19 1/2" inside the mat, protected in simple metal frame and plexiglas (not assembled currently), of a 1978 exhibition at the Museo Espanol de Arte Contemporaneo in Madrid. The upper quarter contains most of the print, the middle is the colorful area, and at bottom in large print is the word "MIRO". At extreme lower right in small print is the name of the printer, La Poligrafia, S.A., in Barcelona, and the 1978 d...

Lithograph, subtly colored in black, tan/gray and white, numbered at lower left margin 8/100, pencil signed at lower right, by one of England's earliest Abstract Expressionist painters, FRANK AVRAY WILSON (1914-2009). The print measures 25 1/4" by 19 1/2", and is presently housed in a simple metal frame which has wear. Wilson was an active figure in the art scene in London from about the late 1940's, peaking artistically in the 1960's, before ceasing exhibition and promotion in the mid 1970's....

Original stone lithograph, not an offset print, 23 3/4" by 26 3/4" inside the mat (not examined out of frame), signed in the plate by the artist Jan TOOROP and dated in the plate 1915. Executed primarily in black, note the color----pale orange in the cap and shirt, blue in the trousers. Toorop is a major Dutch artist, one of whose works (painting) just exceeded $700,000 at auction. His prints and posters are much more affordable. I don't see that this one is pencil signed. CONDITION: Note ...

By French School of Paris (L'Ecole de Paris) artist ROGER CHASTEL (1897-1981), a color lithograph print on heavy paper, possible title "Nature Morte", numbered in pencil at left margin 115/220, and with blind stamp "GG" in a circle.

The artist's large, cubist oils have exceeded $10,000 at auction; one, in 2018, brought $...

This is a matching PAIR of prints, one of shorebirds like snipe, the other of partridge-type fowl, each print measuring 13 1/2" by 19 1/2" inside the mat (18 1/2" by 23 1/2" as framed), both by ALEXANDER POPE, JR. (1849-1924), a noted American artist from Boston who is known for his Harnett style trompe l'oeil paintings of harvested wild birds, and sporting and wildlife art. Pope was from an upper class background, and he had a lot of time to paint. Today his finest works bring very large sums...

Original late 1960's lithographic poster, "115 Bank Street", by the famed modern artist ALEXANDER CALDER (1898-1976), printed by Mourlot. The piece measures 28" by 21" in orange metal framing (not examined out of frame). It is in acceptable decorative condition, the colors bright, but due to past moisture exposure, there is a vertical rippling pattern and in the lower three inches, there is some water staining, as shown in the photos. A colorful addition to your modern interior. As mid cent...

An original lithograph on heavy paper, unframed, pencil signed at lower left by the noted Israeli contemporary artist MENASHE KADISHMAN (1932-2015). The print, featuring Kadishman's trademark imagery, of a sheep's head, measures 29 7/8" by 19 3/4". The artist was born in Tel Aviv and by the late 1940's was already studying with sculptors Moshe Sternschluss and Rudi Lehman. In the early 1950's, the young Kadishman lived on a kibbutz, where he was exposed to sheep and shepherding; the experienc...

An original lithograph print, circa 1967, "Words of Maximus of Tyre", hand signed at lower right in soft pencil, stamped with the red chop mark, and annotated in pencil "Closing paragraph from Dissertatis VIII of Maximus of Tyre (2d Cent. A.D.)", by the important American Social Realist artist BEN SHAHN (1898-1969). Most of Shahn's prints were in editions of not more than 200; of some, less than 50 examples are known; and some are today very scarce. After an intense internet search, (though, ...

This is a lithograph, titled "Heure Matinale", 19 3/4" by 25 3/4", unframed, signed in pencil at lower right by the artist and dated there "61", with "epreuve d'artiste" notation, by the noted CoBra artist GUILLAUME CORNELIS VAN BEVERLOO, best known by the pseudonym "CORNEILLE" (the French word for "crow"). The regular edition of this print appears to have been of 120 examples, on BFK Rives paper (and this has those watermarks). Corneille passed away in the year 2010 after a long and distinguis...

This is a puzzling piece; a print in colors, appears to be a lithograph, not an offset, measuring 13 1/4" by 9 1/8" inside the present mat (21 1/4" by 25 1/4" as framed). It is signed "Picasso" in the plate at lower right in the image and dated below that 21-6-20. I don't believe this is from the period, nor do I believe it is listed in a catalogue raisonne; rather, it appears to be some kind of later reproduction perhaps after a drawing or painting. Further research no doubt could resolve th...
