Additional Details: This rare poster, printed by the prestigious Atelier Mourlot on Banks Street in New York City, represents one of the few prints produced during their brief but impactful presence in the United States. Recognizing the growing demand for high-quality lithographic printing in the U.S., Fernand Mourlot sent two flatbed litho presses to New York, along with his son Jacques and two skilled lithographers from France, including Marcel Salinas and Georges LeBrun. The New York branch of Atelier Mourlot opened in 1967 and operated successfully, collaborating with prominent artists and expanding the reach of fine art lithography. Despite its success, cost overruns eventually led to the closure of the studio, and the presses were sold locally. This particular print is a testament to the high standards and craftsmanship that characterized Mourlot's work, making it a valuable piece for collectors. The poster features the same meticulous attention to detail and vibrant quality that Mourlot's Paris studio was renowned for. Printed on high-quality paper, it captures the essence of the collaboration between artists and master printers, a hallmark of Mourlot's legacy. Mourlot's influence on the art world is profound, having worked with legendary artists like Picasso, Matisse, and Miró, and pushing the boundaries of lithographic printing. This piece, from the New York atelier, is a rare collectible that reflects a unique chapter in the history of fine art lithography.
