FARM WOMAN

This is a “Special” offer regarding a new work of art that Jonathan Green has created to support the fund raising efforts of the Harvey B. Gantt Center for African American Arts and Culture. The image, titled “Farm Woman” is currently being produced by Master Printmakers Joseph Kleineman and Maureen Turci at Mojo Portfolio, Union City, New Jersey. Kleineman and Turci have produced many of Romare Bearden’s, Elizabeth Catlett’s and Jacob Lawrence’s most popular prints.

Jonathan Green will donate 75 of the 100 limited edition lithographs to the Gantt Center’s Founders Society Campaign. The image will be released in mid to late October. We would like to offer this wonderful image to you at the pre-release price of $3,500. A deposit of $1,000 is required for each reserved print. Only 25 of the prints will be made available at the pre-release price. The remaining 50 images will be priced at $4,500 each. The size of the image will be 22” X 30” with white margins on all sides. Each of the prints will be signed and numbered by the artist.
