About the Item

DAYTIME KEY is a rarely seen, hand drawn limited edition lithograph by the American surrealist artist Fanny Brennan, created using traditional hand lithography techniques printed on archival Arches paper, 100% acid-free. DAYTIME KEY is an engaging miniature beachscape scene depicting a sandy shoreline, blue sky, and vibrant red locking chest box with a giant vintage key resting horizontally across the top. It appears to be a "perfect day" with clear blue skies and calm sea in the background, yet strangely the giant key does not look to be a match for the lock visible on front of the bright red box! Print size - 6 x 7 in. unframed, excellent condition, hand-signed and numbered in pencil by Fanny Brennan Image size - 2 x 2.5 in. Edition size - 250 Year published - 1992 Printed at JK FIne Art Editions Co. NJ About the artist- Fanny Myers Brennan (1921–July 22, 2001) was a French-American surrealist artist and painter.
