Created just one year after the Apollo 11 moon landing, this striking artwork utilizes a textured composite cork panel as the canvas to depict an astronaut on the lunar surface alongside the American flag, with an Earthrise visible against the void of space. Features a custom brass title plaque on the lower frame edge and is signed by the artist.
