Description from the seller
Jean Michel Basquiat, Untitled ( Skull), 1981, licensed by Artestar, New York Printed in UK 32/55 OYD971, copyright: Estate of Jean Michel Basquiat. Fine art print is crafted on 300 gsm Monte Carlo watercolor paper from the prestigious St. Cuthbert's Mill, a name synonymous with excellence since the 1700s. A must-have for collectors looking to add a bold and vibrant statement to their space.
Heads and skulls were recurring images in Jean-Michel Basquiat's work, inspired by his childhood fascination with Gray's Anatomy. Given to him at age seven by his mother, the book sparked a lifelong interest in anatomy. 'Skull', 1981 was first shown at the Whitney Biennial in 1983.
