Biography
Mel Ramos (1935–2018) is regarded as one of the most significant American Pop Art artists. He became known for his humorous and provocative depictions of pin-up girls, which he often combined with brand-name products such as chocolate, cigarettes, or beverages. Ramos studied art at Sacramento State College in California and was closely connected with the great figures of Pop Art such as Andy Warhol, Roy Lichtenstein, and Tom Wesselmann. His works combine consumer critique with erotic imagery and are today represented in major museums as well as international private collections. In the art market, Ramos’s paintings and prints garner significant attention, particularly his limited-edition screen prints and lithographs, which appeal to a broad collector audience.

The print has always been stored flat and will only be briefly rolled for transport.
