-
Poster 'Commemorating the America's Cup Challenge.' Features an image of the national flags of Australia, the Netherlands and the United States, in the shape of yacht spinnakers. The numeral 12 refers to the 12-metre yacht class used in the 1970 challenge. Artist's name and the date appear lower left.
- Biography/History:
-
In the 1970 America's Cup Challenge, the United States yacht, Intrepid, beat the Australian yacht, Gretel II. Gretel II had beaten France to reach the final. The use of the Netherlands tricolor flag appears to be an artist's error.
