Original Signed Alexander Calder Lithographs

Alexander Calder is considered one the world's most renowned kinetic sculptors. His first work of kinetic art was created in 1931, and moved by systems of cranks and motors. Marcel Duchamp dubbed these objects "mobiles", for in French mobile refers to both motion and motive. In the following years Calder eventually abandoned the mechanical components of his creations, realizing he could fashion mobiles that could undulate on their own using air currents.

Unknown to many, Calder also created a large number of lithographs and etchings. These works of printed matter carry many similarities to that of his three-dimensional work. They share palettes and forms and his images often seem like the imagined surreal landscapes which his creature-like sculptures might inhabit.

Pictured above is an original Alexander Calder lithograph titled Sun and Moon. This wonderful piece was created circa 1970. Sun and Moon is hand signed in pencil by Calder in the lower right hand corner and measures 29.5" x 41.5" unframed. Georgetown Frame Shoppe is currently selling this original Calder lithograph framed for $5,500. Please contact our gallery for more information, or have a look on our website to view our complete collection of original Alexander Calder etchings and lithographs.

Original Signed Pablo Picasso Etchings

Pablo Picasso is considered to be one of the great artists of the 20th century. As much as he was a painter, sculptor, and ceramicist, he was also a great and prolific print maker. In his lifetime he created a miraculous body of lithographs, etchings, linocuts and aquatints. Often, using various print mediums, he chose to illustrate great works of literature, and the literature and poems of his friends. Lysistrata, Sable Mouvant and Vignt Poemes are just a select few of the vast body of Picasso's illustrative portfolios.

Pictured here is the original hand signed Pablo Picasso etching, Anatole Jakovski. This piece is hand signed by Picasso in the bottom right hand corner. It is from an edition size of 50, published by Imprimeur Tanneur, Paris. This work measures 25" x 22 1/2" archivally framed, and is referenced in the Cramer catalogue raisonne, no. 25.

Original Hand Signed Roy Lichtenstein Lithographs


Next to Andy Warhol, Roy Lichtenstein is considered to be one of the greatest artists of the Pop Art movement.

Aside from producing paintings and sculptures, Roy Lichtenstein also created a great number of prints. Lichtenstein often employed the use of multiple mediums such as lithography, screenprinting and etching for the creation of a single print.

His work is often characterized as ironic, humorous and witty. In response to this commonly held opinion, he once stated "I am sure there are certain aspects of irony (in my work), but I get really involved in making the paintings when I am working on them, and I think just to make parodies or to be ironic about something in the past is much too much of a joke for that to carry your work as a work of art."

Pictured above is Roy Lichtenstein's original hand signed lithograph and screenprint, Still Life with Pitcher and Flowers. This work is hand signed, and measures 37" x 52" unframed. A total edition of 100 were published by Multiples Inc., New York, 1974. Please contact our gallery for more information regarding this work, and feel free to have a look through our gallery website to view more original lithographs and screenprints by Roy Lichtenstein.
