Vintage Nagel-Style Framed Portrait – Tower Graphics, Sacramento, California
Vintage Nagel-Style Framed Portrait – Tower Graphics, Sacramento, California
Striking vintage Art Deco/New Wave portrait featuring a sophisticated woman with dramatic dark hair, angular facial features, burgundy lips, and long earrings. The figure wears an oversized pale-yellow top against a muted blue-gray background, creating the clean lines, bold geometric shapes, and minimalist fashion aesthetic strongly associated with 1980s Patrick Nagel-era artwork.
The lower portion is marked “Tower Graphics Sacramento California.” It is presented in a large black frame under glass and appears to be an older commercial graphic print/poster rather than a modern reproduction.
The piece has an impressive large-format presence and would work particularly well as 1980s décor, Mid-Century/Art Deco-inspired wall art, salon décor, fashion décor, or a statement piece for a contemporary interior.
Important: I would advertise this as “Nagel-style” or “Patrick Nagel-era” until we identify the exact image and publisher. The woman absolutely has the Nagel aesthetic, but the Tower Graphics marking is the clue we need to investigate before calling it an authentic Patrick Nagel print.
If you’re selling it on eTRADEIT, I would title it:
