AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

The early graphic, already produced in 1979, "I Still Get a Thrill When I See Bill No. 1" by Mel Ramos, is a fascinating example of how Ramos is appreciated not only by art connoisseurs and collectors for his distinctive art—namely, Pop Art that blends erotic and consumer-critical themes—but also for this approach.
The result is a masterful drawn nude depiction based on a photograph of a beautiful woman and it refers to the eminent American Abstract Expressionist painter Willem de Kooning, whose work Ramos highly admired.
