Published by American Image International. Printed on heavy wove paper by Michael Mackenzie in New York. Golden Tales (1990) by Larry Rivers is a vibrant mixed media work that blends portraiture, text, and symbolic elements in a semi-abstract composition. Dominated by a seated male figure labeled "WEBSTER" within a gold picture frame, the image evokes themes of identity, history, and myth-making. Bright floral motifs and playful visual cues—such as a stylized eye and floating hands—surround the central character, enhancing the surreal quality of the scene. The title “Golden Tales” and the formal attire suggest a narrative rooted in Americana, both celebratory and critical. Produced in a limited edition of 35.
