Comment(s): Rauschenberg works similar in composition and size to our example often sell at auction for substantially more than our modest pre-sale estimates. He was a painter and graphic artist whose early works anticipated the pop art movement. Rauschenberg is well known for his "combines" of the 1950s/1960s, in which non-traditional materials and objects were employed in various combinations.
