(c.1960s) An exceptional original painting by renowned illustrator Peter Green for the cover of a Jimi Hendrix music book. Rendered in a psychedelic style with a kaleidoscopic abstract background, Hendrix, eyes closed, plays a Fender Stratocaster, rapt by the music. It is signed by the artist at lower right, "Green." Though the publication use is unknown, the portrait is self-evidently spectacular. Accomplished in oils on rigid board, the painting measures 20”x16”. Two pieces of wood have been affixed to the reverse for exhibition. The painting remains in very good condition with edge and surface wear. The paint has chipped off of the upper right corner.
