Hand-signed and numbered color lithograph by André Masson (French, 1896–1987), 1975. Limited edition, numbered 22 / 175.
This vibrant piece is custom framed in a striking gold wooden frame with carving that echoes the picture's swirling movement. It's matted with a cream-colored, archival-quality rag mat, and the piece is "float" mounted, to highlight the deckled edge at the bottom of the piece and give the overall presentation a nice multi-dimensional quality.

Creepy Baby, one of our interns who you'll see at the Gallery throughout October, picked out this item as his Find of the Day: A pewter Art Nouveau pitcher made by Kayserzinn, ca. 1890s, featuring the face of a satyr.
Who's scarier: Creepy Baby, or this pitcher?
In Greek mythology, a satyr is a part-human, part-goat creature who's a companion of the god Dionysus (a.k.a. Bacchus). Satyrs are frisky beings who love wine, women (and nymphs), music and dancing -- they are literally party animals. Because of their love of wine, they're often depicted on wine cups and other vessels.
PS: Sorry, Creepy Baby is not available for purchase. ;)
