Mai (Afterlife) by Elizabeth Peyton, Limited Edition Silkscreen Print

This print is one of a pair of editions by Elizabeth Peyton, released in collaboration with the National Portrait Gallery and Avant Arte. This limited edition silkscreen print features Elizabeth Peyton's depiction of Reynold's eighteenth century portrait of Mai, a Pacific Islander who travelled to England in 1773 and became a prominent figure in aristocratic society.

In this piece titled Mai (Afterlife) after Sir Joshua Reynolds' Portrait of Mai (Omai), 1776, Peyton captures the titular subject in a striking fuchsia tone using loose brushstrokes of oil paint.

Peyton's artwork has been translated in to this 15 layer silkscreen print, each of which are individually numbered and signed by the artist on the reverse.
