Original Mickey Mantle screenprint (43 x 43") by renowned artist Steven Kaufman. The image is printed on canvas and has been hand embellished by the artist. It is signed on verso by Kaufman in black felt-tip pen. Steven Kaufman is one of the most well known Pop artists of the modern era. He began his career as an assistant to Andy Warhol at The Factory and it was during his time there that he received his now familiar nickname, SAK, from Warhol. Like his mentor, Kaufman is a unique individual and both his artwork and actions have always reflected a deep social conscience. This is a striking and beautiful work with a strong Pop Art flavor and a unique and significant provenance. This version is particularly interesting as it includes the addition of bats, baseballs and gloves encircling the art. (#25/50AP). 43 x 43".
