About the work

The beloved nursery rhyme put in colors:

All around the green gravel,
The grass grows so green,
And all the pretty maids are fit to be seen.
Wash them in milk,
Dress them in silk,
And the first to go down shall be married.

The Mother Goose portfolio was issued in an edition of 300, with 100 copies retained by the artists, 100 copies retained by Serigrafia, and 100 copies donated to The Children’s Health Fund for sale at an initial offering price of $5000. The portfolio was designed by Chiu Li Design.
