Richard Davies 'The Empire State Building' Signed Artist's Proof Screenprint for the Retigraphic Society – UK, 1981
Richard Davies, 'The Empire State Building', 1981. An original large-scale screenprint, titled, signed and dated in pencil by the artist, inscribed "For Sam" and marked "Artist's Proof", with the Retigraphic Society blind stamp.
The tower rises out of a soft haze of browns, blues and greys above Manhattan, drawn with the precise, layered line this renowned architectural artist is known for. Commissioned and published by the Retigraphic Society.
— Styling Note —
A striking focal point for a hallway, study or above a teak sideboard. Hung beside 'Chrysler', the two make a matched pair of New York's Art Deco landmarks.
— Sold as a pair or alone —
Its companion, Richard Davies's 'Chrysler', also an Artist's Proof inscribed "For Sam", is listed separately. Each print is £4,500. Bought together, the pair is £8,000, a saving of £1,000.
— Condition —
Excellent vintage condition. In its original slim metal frame under new clear glass. Structurally sound and ready to hang.
