La Madeleine

36”x48” (frame 46”x58”) Painted in 1987; purchased in 2008. Never reaching the same stature and more or less following in the footsteps of Leroy Neiman, Mark suffered from the collapse of (the original) Martin Lawrence Galleries and his/their over publishing didn't help his cause. But, I love his artwork and was able to pick up this and another piece for pennies on the dollar for what they brought at his height of popularity.

Featured on page 126 of the book, The Art of Mark King, published by Martin Lawrence, 1990.
