Ceri RICHARDS La Pianiste  (1959)

An original lithograph on watermarked handmade wove paper. Signed Ceri Richards in pencil lower right, and dated and numbered from the small limited edition of 50 lower left. Printed by Curwen Studio under Stanley Jones, who studied under Ceri Richards at the Slade school of Art

In good condition with full margins. Possibly slight fading of colour. Very faint matt burn with very slight dscolouration towards sheet edges and occasional handling marks in the margins. Light scratch in paper near top left sheet edge and very small tear to deckled sheet edge at bottom left corner. Very occasional tiny marks and dots of printing ink. Remains of old tape to reverse from previous mounting, not affecting the front

An early and ultra rare charming and eyecatching Ceri Richards piano-themed print
