Description: Irving Amen made several works on the theme of chess, including this etching printed in 1962. Depicted are elaborate, whimsical pieces on a chess board. The king appears quizzical and sports a curled moustache and pointed beard; the buxom queen is featured in profile; the pawn has a nervous look; a proud steed represents the knight; and a castle tower with a pennant blowing in the wind represents the rook. This print enjoys a beautiful example of Amen’s signature. This print was printed in 1966 in an edition of 90.In original frame.The etching looks like it is in very good condition. The glass underneath the frame may need to be cleaned.
