ICARUS I Signed Lithograph, Abstract Male Figure, Greek Mythology, Black, Grey

1986

About the Item

ICARUS I is an original hand-drawn lithograph created in 1986 by the French American artist Marius Sznajderman, printed in neutral warm grays and intense black on archival Arches paper 100% acid free. ICARUS I is an expressionistic abstract male figure composition depicting the fall of Icarus; a well known tale from Greek mythology. Sznajderman uses printed collage effect cutout pieces and expressive brushwork with a strong black linear drawing to give a feeling of frantic movement as the falling male figure dramatically attempts to save himself. Icarus is the story of the boy who flew too close to the sun and is one which is still told today. The story of Icarus is often used as a warning that people should be aware of the dangers of overconfidence and recklessness. Print size : 21.5” x 29.5”, full bleed image, unframed, excellent condition, hand signed in pencil by Marius Sznajderman Edition size - 150, plus proofs Year published - 1986 Printer - J K Fine Art Editions Co.
