Robert Natkin

Intimate Lighting (Blue), 1974

Color lithograph on beige art paper

Hand signed and inscribed to Jackson and Eunice Lowell - owners of Natkin's printer Chromacomp

40 1/2 × 31 inches

Unframed

This is a unique proof, aside from the regular edition of 100 of an exquisite Abstract Expressionist print. It is signed and inscribed by Robert Natkin to Jackson and Eunice Lowell - the owners of Chromacomp, Inc., and it was acquired directly from the Lowell Estate. Natkin has the distinction of being the first living artist to have received a one million commission, the highest amount ever paid at the time, for a painting. This painting still graces the front lobby of the Newscorp headquarters at 1211 Avenue of the Americas in New York City.

This print has never been framed and has generous white margins with deckled edges. It was acquired directly from Chromacomp Corp, the premier international printing studio based in New York, which did most of Natkin's prints in the 1970s. Chromacomp also created prints for many other renowned artists of the era including David Hockney, Andy Warhol, and others.
