This three color lithograph on Arches paper with deckled edges is pencil signed, dated and numbered from the limited edition of 84.

The "Chosen" artists were, in order of Commandment: Kenny Scharf, Joseph Nechvatal, Gretchen Bender, April Gornik, Robert Kushner, Nancy Spero, Vito Acconci, Jane Dickson, Judy Rifka and Richard Bosman. This lithograph is in excellent condition; unframed with deckled edges so it would look terrific when floated and framed.

Lisa Liebmann, who wrote the introduction to the collection, observed: "...The image has, for most of us, replaced the word..." With respect to the present work, she writes, "The Second Commandment, against the making of images, is the most remote from us, and therefore open to interpretation..." Excellent original condition.
