This original, one-of-a-kind, mid-century master silkscreen strike off, crafted by Vera Neumann in collaboration with designers and artists such as Perry Ellis and Walter Erhard, embodies a narrative-rich artwork. It transcends the traditional role of art as a mere wall decoration, serving as a foundational element for fashion designs, sportswear, housewares, and a plethora of other remarkable creations throughout Vera's illustrious career. Many of these strike offs bear the marks of Vera and her colleagues, evidencing the meticulous process of refining color and design. This piece poignantly narrates the journey of Vera's original artwork, from sketch to painting, from conceptual design to strike off, and finally to manufacturing. It stands as a testament to a bygone era in the fashion and design industry, preserving a historical technique that is nearly lost in contemporary practices.
A vibrant bouquet springs forth in this lively strike off, with spirited tulips dancing in a symphony of pink, yellow, and white. Each brushstroke adds character to the petals, imbuing them with a wild, windswept energy as if caught in a joyous twirl under the spring sun. The lush green stems gather at the base, providing a verdant bed from which the colors pop with jubilant contrast. This piece radiates a cheerful effervescence, akin to a carefree day in a blooming meadow, inviting the onlooker to revel in its timeless celebration of nature's splendor. A perfect piece to infuse any room with the magic of eternal spring.
