Lithograph. Signed by the artist, dated 1972, and annotated Trial Proof lower center in pencil. This work is unique. This trial proof was pinned up by the artist leaving a single pinhole on upper and lower left corners, and several pinholes on upper and lower right corners, as photographed.
This unique Jim Dine print features the artist’s iconic heart motif against a cosmic field of crimson, grey, black, pink, yellow, and purple. Spatters of ink and organic shapes form a soft galaxy behind Dine’s handwritten text “Emma Bovary.” Emma Bovary was the eponymous heroine of Gustave Flaubert’s first novel.
