Donald Sultan, White Tulips and Vase, Feb 25 White Tulips and Vase, Feb 25 - Contemporary, 21st Century, Silkscreen, Tulips Silkscreen Edition of 50 117 x 117 cm (42.1 x 42.1 in) Signed, dated, numbered, and titled, accompanied by Certificate of Authenticity In mint condition, as acquired from the publisher White Tulips and Vase, Feb 25, 2014, belongs to Sultan’s famous Flower series.
