Artist - ROBERT RAUSCHENBERG
Name - WORLD CUPS
Year - 1998
Signed and numbered

Beautiful early set by world-renowned artist ROBERT RAUSCHENBERG.
Patterned cups and saucers with maps of cities around the world.
Robert Rauschenberg is considered one of the fathers of pop art and is undoubtedly one of the most important figures in contemporary art. In 1964, he was the first American to win the Grand Prix of the Venice Biennale.

Robert Rauschenberg (one of the main figures of American Pop Art) turned his gaze to a simple map of major cities. With five cups and saucers, he takes us on a journey from the city blocks of Manhattan to the avenues of Moscow, from Rio to Rome, and from the broad arteries of Mexico City to Beijing.

Cups: Dishes:
Roma Stockholm
Moscow London
Berlin Tokyo
Beijing Mexico City
Manhattan Rio de Janeiro

Dishes also signed in gold by the artist.
One of the most sought-after sets in the Illy collection.
New, never used. No original box.
