Limited edition 18 x 22 lithograph entitled 'Lennon at Home,' numbered 149/199, signed in the lower right in pencil by artist Al Hirschfeld, "Hirschfeld." Drawn in 1997 and featured on page 335 of Hirschfeld's book On Line, this print took on a new meaning in 2001: it shows the slain Beatle John Lennon sitting in the window of his New York apartment, with the World Trade Center's Twin Towers standing in the background—the three sadly lost to fanaticism. Of this piece, Hirschfeld commented: 'The ex-Beatle is sitting in his windowsill at the Dakota on Central Park West, where he lived and where he was gunned down in 1980. His shape here is not that different from the skyscrapers in the skyline behind him, super-vertical. This drawing gets across the playful, mischievous, professorial quality he had.' In fine condition.
