Artist: MAREK ZULAWSKI (1908-1985)

Title: 'STREET SINGER' (original signed lithograph, unframed but with original backboard and artist's label)

Description: Marek Zulawski is well known as a painter, printmaker, illustrator, muralist and maker of works in collage. He was born in Rome of Polish parents, and settled in London in about 1936.  He exhibited at the Royal Academy, Royal Society of Portrait Painters, AIA, and extensively in Poland and the United States. His work is held in numerous public collections in Britain and overseas.  A lithograph from 1954, titled 'Man Asleep', is in the collection of Manchester City Art Gallery. He normally signed his work 'Marek'.

We currently have two good, early works by Marek, a large oil from the 1940s which is listed separately, and this fine original lithograph titled 'Street Singer'.  It measures image size about 20.2 x 10.7 inches and is very evocative of the era of Bill Haley and a young Elvis Presley.  The lithograph is pencil signed, dated (19)55, and numbered 21 of 25 prints only.

The lithograph is unframed but has its original mount and backboard with the artist's label giving the title of the work and the price (then 9 guineas unframed or 12 guineas framed).  The print has strong colours and is in good condition save for some minor handling creases...
