Patrick Nagel Original Poster The Book by Alfred van der Marck Editions
A striking framed poster from 1985 promoting Nagel The Book, published by Alfred van der Marck Editions and distributed by Mirage Editions, Inc. This work captures the quintessential style of Patrick Nagel, whose bold, minimalist depictions of women became icons of 1980s art and design. With sharp lines, high-contrast features, and a sleek color palette, Nagel's imagery embodied the glamour, strength, and sophistication of the era, achieving worldwide recognition through his celebrated illustrations for Playboy as well as the legendary Rio album cover for Duran Duran. Nagel's women, often portrayed as mysterious, independent, and powerful, have become timeless symbols of modern elegance. His work continues to be celebrated for its ability to merge fine art sensibilities with the aesthetics of fashion and pop culture. This large-format promotional piece, in a simple black metal frame with wire hanger, represents not only a classic example of his style but also a collectible piece of 1980s art history tied directly to the publication of his definitive monograph.
