A large, hand-signed lithograph entitled "Concerning Marriages", numbered 53/75, by Allen Jones RA.

Plate 4 in a series of 8, it was published by Editions Alecto in 1964. It depicts a surreal, pop-art marriage.

This print was acquired from the Baron Hesketh estate in 2007.

It is in excellent condition. It is framed and glazed in its original frame.

Allen Jones prefaced his creation of the marriage suite as follows: "Any continuity in this series comes from the attitude in which it was created and the natural progression of one thought leading to another. These images tell no literary tale; thus they remain individually untitled. They are attempts at marriage. Nietsche: Never yet found I woman by whom I would have children, save by this woman that I love, For I love thee O Eternity."

Price: £950
