This is an original Peter Max pop art lithograph titled "Sage with Bird". Peter Max (American, b.1937), with the technical assistance of Jorge Dumas, prepared 8 plates by hand for the edition. Proofs were pulled and then corrected and approved by the artist. The entire edition was then pulled under of the supervision of Mauro Giuffrida at the American Atelier in New York City. The entire edition was inspected and signed by hand in pencil by the artist in his NYC studio in 1976. The print is marked H/C and on Arches paper. HC means “hors de commerce” (“outside the trade”) and these were printed on sheets which were not to be sold, but were instead intended as gifts for institutions or museums.

All Peter Max prints and the painting in this current auction are from a single owner collection.
