About the Item

Rare Limited Edition Serigraph of John Lennon's handwritten lyrics for the song "Dear Prudence" first released as on The White Album by the Beatles in 1968 . It was written when Lennon was in Rishikesh, India with the Maharishi, and is addressed to Mia Farrow's sister, Prudence, who was reluctant to participate in the meditation sessions. This limited edition was released by Bag One Arts (The Lennon Estate) in 1995, and has been sold out from the publisher since 2000. Signature in the plate, numbered screenprinted reproduction of an original manuscript. There is only one available, number 609/1000, and it is archivally framed as shown; ready to hang and enjoy! This serigraph is from the 1995 release of "The Beatle Years" Portfolio, which included ten serigraphs of Lennon's handwritten lyric sheets in an one time only edition of 1,000 plus Proofs. John Lennon (1940 - 1980) was a contemporary musician, song writer, poet, philosopher and artist, whose message across all professions, was peace and harmony. Long before he was a celebrated musician with The Beatles, Lennon was studying his first love at the esteemed Liverpool Art Institute. He focused on line drawing, using sumi ink or a pen to create beautiful line illustrations. Lennon illustrated his 3 best selling books that were published in the 1960s. Today his whimsical expressions of humanity are enjoyed by many critics and collectors alike as they are display in institutions such as the The Museum of Modern Art in New York. Art was another way for Lennon to express the wit, wisdom, and whimsey that made him one of the most important cultural figures of our time. As John once said, "If art were to redeem man, it could do so only by saving him from the seriousness of life, and restoring him to an unexpected boyishness."
