Christo Vladimirov Javacheff (1935-2020) and Jeanne-Claude Denat de Guillebon (19350-2009), known as CHRISTO & JEANNE-CLAUDE (American), two off-set lithographs printed in colors, "The Umbrellas Joint Project for Japan and America", 1991, on wove paper, [approximate dimensions - each sight: 34" H x 20 1/2" W], each signed in pencil low margin, from the edition of an unknown size, printed by Domberger, Stuttgart, with their blindstamp, published by Carl Flach, Achenbach Art Edition, Düsseldorf. 

Framed in plexi-glass boxes. Overall, the prints are in good condition. They are both housed in narrow plexi shadow boxes. There are loose dust particles resting in the bottom of each frame. The piece with yellow umbrellas has a tiny speck of dust or unknown substance adhering to the paper near the top of the frame (picture included). The piece with blue umbrellas has scattered minor losses or imperfections (paper appears to have not absorbed coloring). Along the upper margin, surface imperfections in paper by the frame. Please contact the Fine Art Department for additional photographs.
