This beautiful, original vintage Joan Mitchell poster was produced by renowned Parisian gallerist Daniel Templon for a major exhibition of postwar art in France, held in Fréjus, Cote d’Azur during the summer of 1990. The featured work, River V 1987, dates from the final decade of the artist’s life—a period widely regarded as among her most refined and assured, when she was working at the height of her creative powers. Inspired by the shimmering expanse of the Seine visible from her home in Vétheuil, Mitchell revisits the motif of the river as a metaphor for life, a theme she returned to throughout her career. In River V, she achieves a dazzling and exuberant composition, alive with vibrant intensity, dynamic brushwork, and a luminous, masterfully orchestrated palette that evokes a sweeping sense of light and fluid, free flowing movement. This premium-quality lithograph poster, printed on fine smooth white paper, conveys the energy and nuance of the work with fidelity. Exceptionally rare, it stands as a highly desirable collector’s piece. See less
