All of the Tamayo printwork from MLA Gallery comes with an unconditional guarantee of authenticity, on the gallery letterhead, and a lifetime trade in policy. The image is from the catalog. The actual print is nearly identical, as there are only minor variations with Tamayo graphics.
This work is beautifully framed, and will be shipped with the framing. So, only domestic shipping makes sense. $300 for custom packaging and insured shipping within the US.
Excellent prints by Tamayo represent a blue chip investment. They will more than likely appreciate dramatically over time. One of Tamayo’s paintings entitled “Trovador,” which was done in 1945, just set a record for the highest price ever paid at auction, for a Latin American painting, at the Christies sale on May 28th, when it sold for $7,209,000.00.
