LITHOGRAPHY

It has been the preferred choice for the greatest modern and contemporary
artists - Picasso, Chagall, Matisse, Calder, Bellows, and Norman Rockwell.
Garcia's early work is here presented for the first time in the style of these
"master" lithographs, from hand-drawn plates, produced in limited editions,
by the same time-honored printing methods, on vintage presses, onto 100%
French-made rag paper, with hand-torn, decaled edges.
