This work has incredible provenance. There will never be another one like this again. Absolutely unique. It was owned by Christopher Thomas (stage director of the Los Angeles Music Center's production of Richard Wagner's "Tristan und Isolde") and it was acquired from his estate. This one-of-a-kind offset lithograph designed by the famous English artist, David Hockney, is, exceptionally, autographed by Hockney as well as 30+ other cast members. Own a piece of Pop and Opera history! The autographs include David Hockney, plus the set designer, who has signed the poster in the middle, Jonathan Miller, famous British director who has signed the poster above and to the left of Hockney’s in blue ink (the only signature that is not signed in gold ink), Zubin Mehta, the conductor who has signed the poster above the clasping hands, the seven leading singers (Jeannine Altmeyer who played Isolde, William Johns who played Tristan, Florence Quivar who played Brangane, Roger Roloff who played Kurwenal, Elliot Palay who played Melot, Jonathan Mack who played the Sailor and Sheperd, and Peter Van Derick who played the Helmsman) and 30 others who include members of the chorus, non singing actors, orchestra members, and crew who worked on the play.
Inscription examples include: "very best wishes for a true Wagnerite" / "you're great fun to work with and such a knowledgeable fellow" // "thank you for one of the best times of my life: - and they continue.
This is an extraordinary work - all the more so that the poster was designed and autographed by David Hockney.
