Description: This rare and unique print by Hajime Sorayama is a must-have for any art collector. The print is signed by the artist himself and numbered 1/1 and HC which stands for HC – Hors d’Commerce Proof If a print is signed Hors d’Commerce or HC, it means this print was destined for promotional use, most commonly as a sample for galleries or dealers. These are typically a much smaller run and a more valuable print since they are typically not available for public sale and signed specifically for a gallery. I believe this print is of Traci Lords but not 100% sure cause I found only 1 other copy. I believe this can be seen in the 1983 "Fantastic" Book and I think these were made specifically for that book (still doing research and will update. I am in talks with trying to get in touch with him for more information) The overall condition is excellent on all the prints that I have. The item measures 32" in length and 22" in width unframed. I have 7 more 1/1 HC Prints that came out of a huge Portfolio Book (The Book Is Not Part Of The Sale Unless You Would Like All The Prints) Hajime Sorayama (空山 基, Sorayama Hajime, born February 22, 1947) is a Japanese illustrator known, along for his design work on the original Sony AIBO, for his precisely detailed, erotic portrayals of feminine robots. He describes his highly detailed style as "superrealism", which he says "deals with the technical issue of how close one can get to one's object."[1] Modern English-language editions of Sorayama's art books give his name as Hajime Sorayama, using conventional Western order, with given name followed by surname. Some older publications give his name as Sorayama Hajime, using native Japanese name order, which puts the family name first. ***Shipping is an estimate done by Ebay and any over charge on this item will be credited back to you.
