Provenance: From the estate of Emilie "Mimi" Kilgore, who shared an important and well-documented relationship with de Kooning. The two met in 1970, and over the ensuing many years, Ms. Kilgore had a profound and vital impact on both the artist's life and his work. Sotheby's, in a nice write-up refers to her as "the woman who became his muse". In a letter to her, de Kooning states, ""I dedicate all of my paintings to you." He was entirely in love with Emilie -- invigorated by her sophistication, her relative youth, and her vibrant energy. In 1975, he asked Emilie to marry him -- an offer she declined, although they continued to remain close. Signed by Author(s).

"The Museum of Modern Art honored Frank O'Hara with a memorial edition of his poetry illustrated by artists who knew and loved him-foremost among them, William de Kooning. De Kooning made his drawings on mylar which he then presented to the Museum. A quarter of a century later, the mylar drawings were transferred to lithographic plates and printed under the supervision of the artist and the Museum of Modern Art solely in order to illustrate the Club's edition of those O'Hara poems that had so moved de Kooning. Seventeen of de Kooning's eighteen charcoal drawings are reproduced here for the first time as originally intended-with their subtle strokes and wide tonal range. De Kooning's drawings were transferred from their original mylar sheets to lithographic plates and printed on hand--made ochre?tinted Kitakata paper. Each print was torn by hand and pressed into the book's pages by the intaglio method." (From the publisher). LEC Bibliography. HBS 69340. $2,750. Signed.
