Description
BID PER WHAT YOU SEE IN THE PHOTO, NOT THE AI GENERATED TITLES AND DESCRIPTIONS! A Collection of Artworks Bearing the Signatures of Keith Haring, Peter Max, and Marc Chagall
This collection consists of several prints and mixed-media works on paper. Included is an original color lithograph by Marc Chagall, produced as the cover for Derriere le Miroir number 147, published in June 1964 by Maeght Editeur. The piece is plate-signed CHAGALL and depicts an inverted figure with a vibrant floral bouquet; the verso contains publication details in French, noting that the lithographs were printed by Mourlot Freres. Peter Max is represented by two works: a large framed print featuring a profile face in blue and red tones with a printed red signature and a publisher’s embossed stamp in the lower right, and a smaller matted abstract print hand-signed Max in gold ink. The collection also features two works in the style of Keith Haring. The first is a framed screenprint of stylized dancing figures with a red border and cross-in-circle icon, bearing a printed signature and date of 1987 in the lower margin. The second is an unframed circular composition executed in ink and marker on toned paper, featuring multiple figures and hand-signed K. Haring in black marker at the bottom.
Condition report:
The framed items show minor surface scuffs and wear to the black frames. The paper of the matted and framed prints appears generally well-preserved with light uniform toning. The unframed Haring-style drawing exhibits more pronounced toning and handling creases throughout. The Marc Chagall lithograph shows significant toning, handling creases, and visible tearing and wear along the left margin where it was previously bound in the publication.
