Robert Motherwell — London Series I
Robert Motherwell

London Series I

Robert Motherwell's *London Series I* is a suite of lithographs that exemplifies the artist's mastery of bold, gestural abstraction, characterized by his signature interplay of stark contrasts and expressive mark-making. Published by Marlborough Graphics, Inc., New York, in an edition of 150 with 10 artist's proofs, the works reflect Motherwell's deeply personal visual language rooted in Abstract Expressionism. The varied designations across the prints — numbered editions, artist's proofs, and a unique proof — highlight the intimate relationship between the artist and the printmaking process.

Medium
All signed, two numbered 19/150 and 35/150, two annotated 'artist's proof' and one annotated 'proof' in pencil (the edition was 150 and 10 artist's proofs), published by Marlborough Graphics, Inc., New York, all framed.
