Artist: Andy Warhol (American, 1928 - 1987). Title: "Lighthouse Footwear Reptile Shoes". Medium: Original color offset lithograph. Date: Composed 1979. Dimensions: Overall size: 30 x 45 in. (762 x 1143 mm).Lot Note(s): Signed in black marker, lower left. Edition unknown, presumed small. Thin light cream wove paper. The full sheet. Fine impression. Very good to fine condition. Literature/catalogue raisonne: Paul Marechal, "Andy Warhol: The Complete Commissioned Posters, 1964-1987," #12. Comment(s): A scarce poster. Only three auction records in the past 25 years located. As Marechal states, "Warhol's zoomorphic creation for Lighthouse Footwear, combining a shoe with a snake, is as original as it is unexpected. Warhol's pen molded the snake into a shoe, making them one - an advertising tour de force uniting product and origin."

Apparently there were very small quantities of this lithograph printed for distribution at the opening night reception and they went quickly. The exhibition ran from December 16th 1993 to March 13th 1994. Printed by Amilcare Pizzi S.p.A., Milan, Italy. Image copyright © The Lucian Freud Archive. [29187-2-800]
Artist: Andy Warhol (American, 1928 - 1987). Title: "Man Ray #2". Medium: Color offset lithograph. Date: Composed 1974. Dimensions: Overall size: 8 1/2 x 8 5/8 in. (216 x 219 mm).Lot Note(s): Signed in black felt tip pen, center left. Edition unknown, presumed very small. Cream wove smooth paper. Printed to the edge of the sheet. Fine impression. Fine condition; affixed to very thin and supple archival acid-free support sheet, not mount/board. Literature/catalogue raisonne: cf. Feldman/Schellmann II.148. Comment(s): Rare. Issued to promote the 'Man Ray' exhibition at Galleria Il Fauno and Alexandre Lolas, Milan, Italy, in August of 1974. The show consisted of 28 separate images of Man Ray. Apparently there were very small quantities of this lithograph printed for distribution at the opening night reception and they went fast. Printed by Poligrafico Roggero & Tortia, Beinasco/Turin, Italy. In the early 1970s Warhol began to accept regular commissions to paint the portraits of the rich and famous. However, as well as commissions, he also painted a number of portraits of people he admired, especially other artists. Man Ray was one of his heroes, so much so that, when he could afford it, Warhol acquired a number of his photographs, paintings and early books. This image is based on a Polaroid photograph he took of him, cigar in mouth, in 1973. As with the portraits of his mother and other people he felt close to, these portraits of Man Ray are among the most painterly and heavily-worked Warhol ever painted.

Artist: Andy Warhol (American, 1928 - 1987). Title: "Mao [ad announcement]". Medium: Color offset lithograph. Date: Composed 1972. Dimensions: Overall size: 12 x 9 in. (305 x 229 mm).Lot Note(s): Signed in black marker, lower center. Edition unknown, presumed large. Smooth wove light cream paper. The full sheet. Fine impression. Fine condition; affixed to very thin and supple archival acid-free support sheet, not mount/board. Literature/catalogue raisonne: cf. Feldman/Schellmann II.93. Comment(s): Unusually scarce magazine advertisement, highly sought after since the set of 10 Mao editioned screenprints fetched $2,538,592 at Sotheby's London in 2012. Our example, the advertisement announcement, is rarely at auction. Original and published prior to the publication of the Mao silkscreen set of ten. The color brochure mentioned in the ad is the Mao Announcement, offered also in this auction. As can be seen from the price list (illustrated but not part of this lot), the portfolio was available for $4,500 to the public, $2,400 by subscription. The edition was co-published by Multiples, Inc., New York, and Castelli Graphics, New York and printed at Styria Studio.

Artist: Pablo Picasso [d'apres] (Spanish, 1881 - 1973). Title: "May 16, 1964 #5 [from the suite 'Le Gout du Bonheur,' image dated 16-5-64 V, untitled as issued]". Medium: Original color silkscreen & lithograph. Date: Composed 1964. Printed 1970. Dimensions: Overall size: 12 7/8 x 9 5/8 in. (327 x 244 mm).Lot Note(s): Signed in pencil, lower right; annotated in pencil (presumably in the artist's hand) lower left; dated in the plate, lower right. An artist’s proof (E.A. - epreuve d’artiste) aside from the edition of 666. Cream wove handmade watermarked rag Velin d' Arches paper, deckle edges three sides. Full margins, as issued. Fine impression. Fine, fresh condition, as issued, with rich, vibrant colors. Literature/catalogue raisonne: Goeppert/Cramer (GC[or]CR[or]CBK[or]CB[or]C) 148; Bloch (BB) 150. Provenance: the Estate of Guenther Dietz (German, 1919-1995), who printed the edition. Comment(s): Although this work is often catalogued as a lithograph, or silkscreen, or pochoir, or photo-lithograph, in reality it is none of these. By 1964 Guenther Dietz, the printer, had created a unique fine printing system which involved the use of both lithographic plates and serigraphic screens. He and master printers from his company (Guenther Dietz Offizin Handpresse GmbH, Munich & Lengmoos, Germany) printed this work under the direct supervision and participation of Picasso himself. Dietz used grease crayon, lithographic tusche, lead pencil, and charcoal, among others, to create the matrixes and receive Picasso’s approval to print the edition (Cramer, ‘Livres’ 148). The plates and screens were destroyed after printing. Published by Harry N. Abrams, Inc., New York. Image copyright © Artists Rights Society (ARS), New York. [30022-2-1600]
