Robert Motherwell (America, 1915-1991) was a pioneer in the Abstract Expressionist art movement which flourished in New York City in the mid 20th Century. As a painter, printmaker and collagist his influence helped to move the focus of the international art world from Europe to North America. This 1983 etching, 'Mulligan's Tower', numbered 11/32, was inspired by an earlier sketch and references James Joyces 'Ulysses', a literary work which had a significant influence on Motherwell's life and career. The sheet size is 17 x 13 inches with a frame size of 19.5 x 15.25 inches.
