Lithograph in colors with hand-coloring. Image: 50.25 × 39 in (128 × 99 cm) Sheet: 53.5 × 39.75 in (136 × 101 cm) Signed, dated and numbered to lower edge . Printed by Michael Mackenzie, New York and published by American Image Art, New York. Golden Tales by Larry Rivers, created in 1990, is a large-scale lithograph enriched with hand-coloring, merging portraiture, symbolism, and playful commentary. A stylized figure labeled “Webster” sits in a wooden box-like structure, his face framed and surrounded by bright flowers. The fragmented rendering, expressive lines, and cartoonish touches highlight Rivers’ signature blend of realism and abstraction. The piece layers historical reference with satirical narrative, possibly alluding to American identity, memory, or mythology. Printed by Michael Mackenzie and published by American Image Art, this work exemplifies Rivers' ability to infuse fine art with personal, political, and cultural motifs.

What is Gestural?
Gestural art is a term that describes painting with freely sweeping brushstrokes. The primary goal of gestural art is to allow the artist to physically express emotional impulses. The varied, yet expressive paint marks are intended to convey the artist's inner thoughts and emotions, which viewers are believed to understand through the dynamic and spontaneous application of paint.
