Early Chaplin brings together two instantly recognisable figures of 20th-century American culture: Charlie Chaplin, one of cinema’s great icons, and Larry Rivers, one of the most inventive artists of his generation. Created in 1991, Rivers’ lively graphic treatment captures Chaplin not as a distant historical figure, but as a vivid piece of popular culture - making this an especially engaging work for collectors drawn to Pop, cinema and the meeting of fine art with mass culture.
