The offered matted display features a Stevie Nicks signed lithograph of her 1982 painting "Rhiannon," named after the hit Fleetwood Mac song that she wrote. Also included is a copy of her writing entitled "Postscript" explaining the painting. It reads:
Rhiannon was started at the onset of Robin's Leukemia~ last August~she died last Tuesday~she was originally finished for Patrick at the City of Hope~ he died while she was still in her grey stage~I finished her in brilliance upon Robins death~ because Robin was brilliant~May she be a patron of driving this disease away~ it cannot live this cancer~ amongst Rhiannons bright colors~ she was a bright light girl~ and we will fight on white light~
She has signed the print "To Tina Love Stevie Nicks." Rhiannon is a Welsh goddess that Nick's first heard of when referenced in a book she was reading in the early 1970s. The character, and her extension of it into her music, has fascinated Nicks for years, as evidenced by the signed print of her angelic painting. The display is accompanied by a letter of authenticity from Beckett Authentic. The matted size is 20 x 16 inches and all materials present with minimal distresses, if any. Near Mint to Mint condition.
