About:

Peter Max’s Umbrella Man is a recurring subject in his body of work, first introduced in the 1960s and revisited over the decades. Rendered in mixed media, the piece combines bold acrylic brushwork with printed elements, often on paper or canvas.

This composition reflects Max’s signature pop art style, characterized by vivid color fields, fluid lines, and a blend of psychedelic and urban imagery. The Umbrella Man figure stands as a symbol of individuality and optimism, central to Max’s visual language.
