    Provenance / HistoryLiterature: Engberg / Banach Robert Motherwell Print Catalogue Raisonne # 243. Published by the Newport Opera Festival, Newport, Rhode Island, printed by Princeton Polychrome Inc., Princeton, New Jersey, with full margins, framed. 
    Story / Additional InfoProduced to benefit the Newport Opera Festival, this print celebrates Motherwell's love of the sea and of sailing. It features simple sleek abstract forms resembling sails and is an excellent example of Robert Motherwell's signature color Motherwell Blue (the same shade found on the Gauloises cigarette packs that so often found their way into his collage work). The deluxe edition consists of 200 unnumbered impressions, of which approximately 50 were signed in red or black pen. This print is one of the 50 that is hand-signed. It is conservation framed with plexi and museum quality 8 ply acid free mat board. The print is boldly hand-signed "to Newport" in the bottom right-hand corner in black ink. It is very legible (see scan). The image is fresh and bright. It is also signed in the plate in black in the upper right hand corner "RM July 1977" (see scan).
