This epic & internationally recognized Surrealistic Print by Pavel Tchelitchew is called "Hide And Seek". This poster was purchased from the Print Mint back in the early 70's. It was printed in West Germany. This mind-blowing painting has been featured in college "introduction to art" books for over five decades! Hide-and-Seek is a 1942 oil on canvas painting in the collection of the Museum of Modern Art (MoMA) in New York City, by Russian painter Pavel Tchelitchew. Tchelitchew was given a retrospective of his work at MoMA in 1942. Hide and Seek was completed by Tchelitchew in 1942, but he had been working on variations on its imagery since about 1934. A phenomenon seen in Hide and Seek is that of the "simultaneous image", in which a degree of ambiguity exists between various components of the composition. This is not unique to Hide and Seek.
Condition: Foxing, toning.
