A wonderful example of modernist graphic art, featuring five elegantly elongated cranes arranged in an overlapping composition of soft mauve, dusty rose, ivory and muted plum.
Titled Cranes, this limited edition serigraph by Marco captures the graceful forms of these birds through flowing silhouettes, delicate tonal transitions and a wonderfully understated colour palette. The simplicity of the composition is its greatest appeal, with the slender necks and angular beaks creating an almost sculptural rhythm across the artwork.
The design has a distinctly late 20th century modernist character, balancing Art Deco influences with the softer colours and graphic styling of the period.
The print is titled, signed and individually numbered in pencil along the lower margin. Presented behind glass with a generous ivory mount and a slim champagne silver frame, which complements the artwork without competing with it.

Note/Disclaimer:
Our images form part of the item description. While we make every effort to restore our furniture to its original state, most pieces date from the 1950s to the late 1970s. As a result, and despite restoration, signs of their vintage nature and previous life may still be visible. Light traces of restoration may remain visible, consistent with authentic vintage furniture. In some cases, minor adjustments may also have been made during the restoration process to ensure the piece remains functional and usable. We will point out any notable aspects where possible. We encourage in-store viewing or careful review of photographs before purchase.
Items are wrapped and prepared for transport by us (not the courier) to ensure safe handling. Once items leave our premises, they are no longer insured. We recommend arranging goods-in-transit insurance through your own short-term insurer.
