AI-assisted summary
Description from the seller
Set of two unsigned and unnumbered sheet-offset prints by Kees Verkade: 'Études – The Promise' ’88 and 'Études – First Step' ’89.
Both works are, according to family provenance, printed at Drukkerij De Boer in Hilversum and were at the time produced as corporate gifts. According to the family, during the printing run a few extra copies were run through the press ('carried through'), after which the sheets were cut differently.
The Promise ’88: 58.5 × 45.5 cm
First Step ’89: 58.5 × 49.5 cm
Both copies are unsigned and unnumbered and thus differ from the well-known signed and numbered Verkade editions.
The Promise has a direct connection to AVRO: Kees Verkade created the image of the same name in 1988 for AVRO’s 65th anniversary in Hilversum.
The two works have been kept together and are offered as a single set.
