Peter Blake's Babe Rainbow centres on a smiling figure framed by concentric bands of rainbow colour. The white outfit, decorative belt and prominent name panel give the portrait the directness of a showground sign or popular entertainment poster. The contrast between the carefully described figure and the bold geometric border creates a lively meeting of portraiture, lettering and Pop imagery.

All works are supplied with a Certificate of Authenticity issued by Dovehouse Contemporary.
