This documented artist commentary adds a layer of provenance that collectors appreciate. A quintessential example of the psychedelic poster movement that transformed American visual culture.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe composition centers on a symmetrical arrangement of formally dressed Victorian children gathered around a wicker table, seemingly oblivious to the cosmic explosion surrounding them. Above and around them, marbled swirls of hot pink, magenta, and gold contain mirrored images of white cats, colorful fish, galloping horses, and serene crescent moons with human faces. The bilateral symmetry creates a kaleidoscopic effect that rewards extended viewing.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eSize:\u003c\/strong\u003e 10.25\" x 15.5\"\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eArtist:\u003c\/strong\u003e Peter Max\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCondition:\u003c\/strong\u003e Very Good, Age-appropriate wear, fading and toning.
