Mickalene Thomas presents a shimmering, richly layered sold-out limited-edition print of a signature group portrait. "Girlfriends & Lovers," the original of which was created in 2008 and is in the collection of the Akron Art Museum, exemplifies the artist's trademark fusion of portraiture, pattern, and art-historical references. Drawing on 1970s pop culture, interior design, and classical group portraiture, the composition reclaims Black femininity through Mickalene's unique, intimate, and unapologetic gaze. This limited-edition print is the result of an intricate silkscreen process, with metallic shimmer layers alongside gloss and matte varnishes, carefully calibrated to echo the bold texture of the original artwork, made from acrylic, enamel, and rhinestone. The print measures 21.2 x 27.6 inches unframed and 24.2 x 30.5 x 1.2 inches framed, an archival pigment print on 410gsm Somerset Tub Sized Radiant White paper with 8 silkscreen layers, including metallic shimmer layers, a gloss varnish, and a matte varnish seal. Signed by the artist and individually numbered from an edition of 283, the print arrives with a certificate of authenticity and was released on March 17, 2026.
