In American Trilogy, Peter Blake brings together three great American icons; Coca Cola, Elvis Presley, and the Star-Spangled Banner. The chosen imagery is representative of mass consumerism and America's cultural influence on the rest of the world.
Blake has produced three versions of this print, each with a different colour or surface texture, to reflect the endless "sameness' of mass production. This piece is a prime example of the passion for nostalgia and celebrity figures that has earnt Peter Blake the moniker, The Godfather of Pop Art.
This silkscreen print with glaze is from an edition of 150, and is signed in pencil by the artist.
