Appears to be paper affixed to cardboard. Some scratches to surface; as picture was not covered by glass for many years. No warping. Is this a lithograph? An art print?
17-3/4” x 26”
hello, this item is a print by Antoni Clavé (1913–2005), likely a lithograph or collotype on paper, depicting a mounted warrior or king—an iconic theme in Clavé’s post-war oeuvre. Measuring approximately 17 ¾ × 26 inches and mounted on cardboard, this work is unsigned and shows surface wear, suggesting it may be a period reproduction or a print not originally intended for individual sale. The bold use of black, grey, and vermilion, along with the flattened, abstracted forms, are hallmark features of Clavé’s mature visual language, combining medieval imagery with post-Cubist texture and symbolism.
Without a signature or edition number, and given the fact it’s affixed to cardboard, this piece would not be considered a fine art print of investment grade. However, vintage Clavé posters and unsigned lithographs from the 1950s–1970s still carry decorative and scholarly value. Based on its aesthetic appeal and attribution to Clavé, the fair market value is approximately USD 250–400.
