Description from the seller
Michael Parkes (1944) - “That Daring Young Frog” - Original hand-signed stone lithograph - Deluxe suite edition from 1986.
Artist: Michael Parkes (American, born 1944)
Title of the work: That Daring Young Frog
Year of issue: 1986
Technique: Original stone lithograph (color lithograph on heavy paper)
Signature: Hand-signed in pencil by the artist (lower right)

Dimensions:
Image size (lithograph): 30 x 23 cm

About the artwork:
A beautiful, dreamlike, highly detailed work by the undisputed master of magical realism, Michael Parkes. This beloved early motif depicts a characteristic and mysterious interaction between a sensuous nude female figure and a frog. The work excels in its technical complexity; the fine stippling around the frog and the soft, layered color transitions demonstrate the high level of craftsmanship involved in traditional stone lithography.
This particular format was issued in 1986 in a very exclusive edition of just 200 copies through the renowned Steltman Galleries (Amsterdam).
Condition and framing:
The lithograph is in excellent condition, retaining its fresh, original hues. The work is housed in its original, high-quality silver wooden frame with a professionally custom-cut mount. (The frame has slight signs of wear.)
The back bears the original label of the well-known Hague framing shop and art dealer Oudewaal bv (Kazernestraat, The Hague). Thanks to the exceptionally professional and careful framing at the time, the paper has been perfectly preserved, and the work is ready to hang.
Shipping and packaging:
The artwork will be packaged with the utmost care and professionalism (with special protection for the glass) and shipped worldwide, insured, with tracking. Registered shipping.
Seller's Story
If something moves me, I buy it. It’s that simple, really. Since 2008 I scour here and abroad, always looking for that one object with a soul. Whether it’s an ancient antique piece or modern design: if it radiates craftsmanship and character, I’m hooked. I enjoy giving these finds a new home. Take a look around, and I hope my passion for quality touches you as well.
