LARRY RIVERS
Last Civil War Veteran I.

Lithograph, 1961. 455x320 mm; 18x123/4 inches, full margins. Artist's proof, aside from the edition of 20. Signed, dated and inscribed "A.P." in pencil, lower margin. Printed by Robert Blackburn. Published by ULAE, West Islip, with the blind stamp lower left. A brilliant impression of this extremely scarce proof.

The published version of this print lacks the expressive brush work and darkness of this proof. Sparks cites only a single artist's proof, presumably this particular impression. Sparks 27.
