Description: "FLIGHT II" SEAGULL, BY CAROLYN BLISH, 1978, HAND-SIGNED AND NUMBERED LIMITED EDITION PRINT #959/1,500, IN VERY NEARLY PRISTINE MINT CONDITION (except for a bit of very, very light, barely visible slightly yellowish age spotting in the top border keeping it from being in otherwise perfect condition. None of this affects the image, and all of which may be matted out if you wish-- but not really necessary, as it's not visible unless you get within inches). MADE FROM HER GORGEOUS WATERCOLOR PAINTING, THIS IS A LARGE 18 x 28" PHOTO LITHOGRAPH, WITH A 15 x 25" IMAGE AREA, AND INCLUDES A COPY OF THE ORIGINAL GREENWICH WORKSHOP WHOLESALE PURCHASE RECEIPT, TO AUTHENTICATE (COA). Please excuse the slightly reddish tinge in the photos, from the flash photography. The print is more yellowish.This print features Blish's signature use of vast swaths of abstract color and design along with a realistic rendition of the bird, which make her watercolor particularly striking. This print is quite rare-- no others on eBay, eTsy or Amazon. We also have other, larger, more expensive Blish prints, in perfectly MINT condition: including prints of FLIGHT and WINDSURF-- all featuring seagulls.PART OF THE GREENWICH WORKSHOP SERIES OF LIMITED EDITION CAROLYN BLISH WILDLIFE PRINTS-- MANY OTHERS OF WHICH WE ALSO CARRY, AS WELL AS MANY, MANY OTHER WILDLIFE, NAUTICAL, BIBLICAL, FINE ART, PINUP, AND WESTERN LIMITED EDITION PRINTS AND POSTERS FROM GREENWICH AND MANY OTHER PUBLISHERS.Purchased new from the publisher in 1979 at wholesale, never framed or displayed, and stored in our darkened, temperature controlled warehouse since, the print is still in otherwise PRISTINE MINT condition, with its original creamy, ivory colored paper.
