Monumental chalk drawing by Keith Haring, executed in the NYC subway, circa 1984, on a full-size blanked out advertising panel on black paper, featuring Haring's iconic motifs of winged angel men, a barking dog and a falling man surrounding a resonating 'Serpent Man'.
The paper laid onto canvas and archivally framed to museum standard.
This work achieved possibly a record price for a Haring subway drawing when sold at Christie's in London in 2007.
Rare to find a full drawing of this size and format, in tact, and untorn.
