The design showcases Johns' 1957 work "Flag," an iconographic Americana composition executed in pastel and collage on gesso board. Published to commemorate "The Drawings of Jasper Johns" retrospective at the National Gallery of Art, Washington, running from May 20 to July 29, 1990, the exhibition was organized by curators Nan Rosenthal and Ruth E. Fine. This design features graphic elements of rows of five-pointed stars and horizontal stripes with underlying text typography identifying the museum sponsors and structural credits. The piece is permanently housed in a custom, archival clear acrylic box frame featuring a recessed wood base and finished structural side returns. Fabrication was completed by Jerry Solomon Enterprises, Inc., a custom picture framing company located on North La Brea Avenue in Los Angeles, California. The original professional framing label is retained on the reverse side of the assembly. The vintage acrylic box casing remains structurally sound with the rear hanging wire securely intact, displaying minor superficial surface wear, light scuffs, and a minimal amount of trapped dust/debris beneath the plexiglass face consistent with age and careful residential display. Please see all photos and the video. One acrylic crack and chip present. Display ready rare collection piece.
