Impressive and visually-striking color limited edition serigraph entitled ‘The Book,’ 30 x 40, 13/375 Japan edition, signed in the lower border in pencil by Michael Jackson as well as the artist, Brett-Livingstone Strong. In very fine condition. Strong, one of Jackson’s close friends who shared the musician’s elaborate style and flair for life, was also a world-renowned architect, sculptor, and artist. He completed the painting on which this serigraph was patterned in 1990. That original painting was created for a Japanese businessman, who paid Jackson $2.1 million to sit for Strong. The portrait—the only one that the late performer ever sat for in his lifetime—is set in Neverland and depicts Jackson dressed in red velvet holding a journal of thoughts and sketches…‘The Book.’ Pre-certified Roger Epperson/REAL and RR Auction COA.
