Provenance: Literature: Engberg/Banach Catalogue Raisonne # 90. Publisher: Marlborough Graphics Inc., New York. Printed by Chris Prater, Kelpra Studio, London. The London Series marked Motherwell's largest print work to date. This series of prints is even slightly larger than the Africa Suite prints of 1970. The London Series I is a continued exploration by Motherwell of his rectangular "Open" theme but this time in a vertical format. White lines are etched and suspended from the top of the page on a field of pure solid color. Perhaps the most important thing to note about this particular print is that it is the first major "RED" print of Motherwell's oeuvre. It is a "true" artist's proof as it is inscribed in Motherwell's hand "Robert Motherwell for RM". LONDON SERIES I: Untitled (Red) is in very good condition with very minor scuffing.
