About the Item

Artist: Romare Bearden (1911-1988) Title: Introduction for a Blues Queen (Gelburd/Rosenberg 71) Year: 1979 Medium: Lithograph on Arches paper Edition: 109/175, plus proofs Size: 24 x 35.50 inches Condition: Excellent Inscription: Signed and numbered by the artist. Notes: Published by London Arts Group, Detroit. ROMARE BEARDEN (1911-1988) Regarded as one of America's master painters and collagists who depicted African-American life within different types of media. He is famous for his collages and assemblages mixed with over-paint, and is highly regarded as one of the century's most inventive print makers, in a league with Charles White and Jacob Lawrence and in the line of Picasso, Braque and Robert Rauschenberg. Due to this achievement, Bearden remains one of the most influential artists of his time. His childhood memories and art historical influences are blended and transformed to create an original and exciting narrative on African-American history and the dynamic world of jazz.
