“Yankee Flame” by Ben Schonzeit 1976 Bicentennial Lithograph
$ 145.00
"Yankee Flame" by Ben Schonzeit was 1 of 13 prints commissioned by the Mobil Oil Corporation for America: The Third Century, an exhibition of major American artists of the 20th century in celebration of America's bicentennial in 1976. This is a '76 first-run lithograph reproduction of the series in great condition considering its age and unframed state! As we mark the 250th anniversary of American independence, these prints are an entertaining - and in some ways ironic - reminder of our national outlook 50 years ago! Schonzeit's collotype, or photogelatin collage, is irreverent and passionate, setting a vibrant and viscerally splattered glass of Coke (what's more American then Coca-Cola?) before a hazy image of George Washington and Lady Liberty.
