About This Item
A Coloured lithograph, pen Signed by the artist as "Maurice Sendak" at lower right, from Sendak's book 'In the Night Kitchen', copyright information printed verso.
The item was originally owned by an agent and friend of Maurice Sendak.
19.25 x 14.5 inches. Unframed. In near fine condition.
The image first appeared in Sendak's award winning book "In the Night Kitchen" (New York: Harper & Row, 1970). It shows three rotund chefs, apparent caricatures of comedian Oliver Hardy, preparing batter for a "morning cake." The protagonist of the story, a boy named Mickey, can be seen sitting on a milk bottle at the upper left. This image was first produced in 1971 as a fine art print included among twenty images chosen by Sendak for his portfolio "Pictures by Maurice Sendak" (New York: Harper & Row, 1971). Sendak curated this collection to include his favorite images from eight different titles to be enjoyed as art prints without necessarily being tied to the related text.
