Original exhibit poster for Pablo Palazuelo (Spain, 1916-2007) at Galerie Maeght in 1970. Printed in Paris, France. Rare-to-find, this has the original shrink-wrap.

There are a few divots, which have punctured the print, as shown. Ready to hang as-is, with picture wire on verso. This would also look incredible framed under glass.
