Appraiser Remarks
This print was based on a drawing after Patrick Nagel, who died in 1984. Patrick Nagel was born in Dayton, Ohio, but was brought up in the Los Angeles area, where he spent most of his life. He studied art at Chouinard Art Institute, and in 1969 received his Bachelor of Fine Arts degree from California State University at Fullerton. Nagel first put his talents to work as a freelance artist; then in 1971, he joined ABC-TV where he produced television graphics for promotion and news broadcasts. After a year, he returned to freelance assignments, accepting commissions from major corporations and magazines, including IBM, ITT, United Artists, MGM, Universal Studios, Playboy, Architectural Digest, Rolling Stone, Oui, and Harpers. Beginning in 1976, Nagel began contributing regularly to Playboy, which extended the exposure and popularity of "the Nagel Woman". Nagel Died of a massive heart attack in 1984
The limited edition prints actually signed by Nagel before his death in 1984 often list at around $2000.00, but these prints made after his death based on his work sell for considerably less. The Mirage editions of Montana are still being produced and sells unframed for under $50.00
