Peter Max 'Angel' Mixed Media on Acrylic

This is a vibrant and textured mixed media artwork on a heavy acrylic panel, created in the signature Neo-Expressionist style of world-renowned artist Peter Max. The central figure is a classically rendered cherub with golden wings and curly blonde hair, wearing a powder-blue shift dress and holding white lilies. This nostalgic imagery is overlaid with Max's trademark high-energy, gestural brushstrokes and three-dimensional paint flourishes in a palette of neon pink, electric blue, and deep black. The background features a smooth gradient transitioning from hot pink at the top to a muted lavender at the bottom. The piece is signed 'Max' in the lower right corner in his distinctive script. The construction is a hybrid of printing and hand-painting (likely an acrylic over-painting on an embossed lithograph or similar substrate), which is then set within or on a thick acrylic block. The piece demonstrates high-quality craftsmanship through the heavy application of impasto paint and the clarity of the acrylic. It appears to be from the late 20th or early 21st century and remains in excellent condition with no visible scratches, yellowing, or paint loss.
