No auction records located. Issued to promote the “Lucian Freud: recent work” exhibition at The Metropolitan Museum of Art, New York. The show consisted of works by Freud created between 1945 and 1993. Apparently there were very small quantities of this lithograph printed for distribution at the opening night reception and they went quickly. The exhibition ran from December 16th 1993 to March 13th 1994. Printed by Amilcare Pizzi S.p.A., Milan, Italy. Image copyright © The Lucian Freud Archive. [29166-2-600]
