This 1970 re-issue of "Cosmic Window" stands as one of Peter Max's most mesmerizing compositions from his groundbreaking Poster Book. The work showcases his signature visual vocabulary: a tunnel of alternating checkerboard and gray frames draws the viewer inward toward a fantastical cosmic landscape. Within this infinite perspective, swirling nebulae in rich oranges and mauves float among planets and stars, while stylized yellow clouds hover above a vanishing point road flanked by delicate roses.This piece encapsulates the Space Age optimism that defined American visual culture at the turn of the decade. Max's genius lay in his ability to transform cosmic themes into accessible, joyful imagery that spoke to both the counterculture and mainstream audiences. The optical illusion motif at top, with its hypnotic concentric circles, adds another layer of visual intrigue.From the influential 1970 Poster Book that brought Max's art into countless American homes, this mini poster represents a pivotal moment when psychedelic aesthetics achieved their widest cultural reach. A standout piece for collectors of the era's most distinctive visual art.Size: 15.75" x 10.75"Artist: Peter MaxCondition: Very Good, Age-appropriate wear, fading and toning.
