Description: To our collector, interior designer and eBay friends worldwide: In additional to this cultural poster, the Cuban Poster Gallery in Washington D.C. is offering a huge selection of handmade Cuban silk-screen movie posters, many of which work beautifully well together. To view all of the posters, please visit our eBay Store ( stores.ebay.com/CubanPosterGallery ) where new listings are being posted every week in both the Auction and Buy It Now/Best Offer formats. The Cuban Poster Gallery appreciates your business! Our regular price for this graphic is $589 We are pleased to offer EL BESO ("The Kiss"), an exquisite screen-printed masterpiece created in Havana, Cuba in 2016. This limited-edition handmade graphic replicates the lovely 1941 painting by the famous Cuban painter Mariano Rodríguez (1912 - 1990), whose work can be found in major museum collections worldwide, including the Museum of Modern Art in New York. The original "El Beso" painting is believed to be in the collection of the National Museum of Fine Arts in Havana. Another Mariano painting sold at auction in New York in recent years for more than $1 million. Mariano's luxuriant paintings have been screen-printed in Cuba before. But we believe this is the first time the EL BESO painting has appeared in Cuba as a screen-print, or serigraph, in the quarter century since the artist's death. This hard-to-find graphic was handmade in a prestigious Havana screen-printing workshop on a heavy art paper. Mariano's signature appears on the graphic, which is numbered in pencil (by hand) in the lower left corner. Only 50 copies were created and offered for sale in Havana--a low print "run" that ensures this graphic will always be scarce. As mentioned above, this screen-print was created in 2016. Born in Havana in 1912, Mariano was an important member of the 20th century Cuban avant-garde, a self-taught artist who was influenced by Matisse, Picasso as well as the modern Mexican masters of the 1930s and 1940s. Using colors that recalled his island nation's tropical environment, Mariano often painted distinctive figures from everyday Cuban life. El Beso is a fine (and important) example with elegant colors. In the years since Mariano's death in Havana in 1990, his paintings have widely sought at auctions in the United States and Europe. Overall condition of this screen-print, which measures approximately 21 x 29 inches, is good. (Please note that we never rate the condition of Cuban graphics as excellent -- or perfect -- because imperfections can be expected in handmade artwork, especially in Cuba.) Buy with full confidence: any graphic purchased on eBay from the Cuban Poster Gallery can be returned for a refund within 30 days. Your EL BESO / "The Kiss" screen-print will be shipped FREE to U.S. addresses by USPS Ground Advantage or UPS (with delivery confirmation) in a sturdy wide tube. For international buyers (outside of the United States), eBay will calculate the cost of shipping and any required Customs duties and taxes.
