About the Item
DRAG QUEEN is a superbly executed hand drawn, original lithograph printed from a lithographic stone using traditional hand printmaking techniques on archival paper 100% acid free.

He looks straight out toward the viewer with one eye open, one closed as he pokes the eye of a mysterious man looking up from the bottom of the composition. Very intriguing, Cabaret-Berlin style, surreal portrait that was hand printed in Paris France during the early 1970's. Artist is unknown....

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia-
A drag queen is a person, usually male, who uses drag clothing and makeup to imitate and often exaggerate female gender signifiers and gender roles for entertainment purposes. In modern times, drag queens are associated with gay men and gay culture, but people of other genders and sexual identities also perform as drag queens.
People partake in the activity of doing drag for reasons ranging from self-expression to mainstream performance. Drag shows frequently include lip-syncing, live singing, and dancing. They occur at events like gay pride parades, carnivals and drag pageants and in venues such as cabarets and nightclubs. Drag queens vary by type, culture, and dedication, from professionals who star in films to people who do drag only occasionally.
