This is a Margaret Keane lithograph from 1962.
It is titled "Waiting for Grandmother". Same size as an original - 15" x 12".
This is a high quality litho done in 1962 in Japan, which was arranged and supervised by Walter Keane,
then husband of Margaret Keane, famous San Francisco artist from 1960s.
Note that the name on this print is Walter Keane, however, it is believed it was actually done by Margaret Keane,
but her husband Walter persuaded her to put his name on it,... arguing that by doing so it would be more successful.
