Lithograph by italian born Artist Athos Menaboni titled "Enterprise" Mr Menaboni is well known for hisĀ illistrated birds and his Christmas card series he did with coca colaĀ . I have only found one other lithograph identical to this one of which that item is located in the Troop County GA Historical Archives. I was told that Mr Menaboni did alot of commission work and though they could not say exactly where this lithograph came from they did state it could have been an item given by aĀ bank locally when a new client opened an account, that the bank had comissioned his work for, though this information can not be verified,
This is not signed or numbered but it came in a folder from Mr Menaboni's with a gold foilĀ label attached with his name. I have verified this is the same lithograph at the museum and not a print. It measures 26" x 20" in size and has been professionally dry mounted on acid free paper and professionally framed. 43" x 36" carved gilt wood frame. The original paperĀ folder could not be saved due to mold spores and bug eggs. Only two small spots where the original folder tape appears to have stuck to the litho.
Any help would be appreciated!
