Patrick Nagel (American, 1945-1984) Girl Seated on a TV, Playboy magazine interior, May 1982 Acrylic and ink on board

Patrick Nagel (American, 1945-1984) Terri Welles, Playmate of the Year, Playboy, 1981 Acrylic on board

"Drawing inspiration from Art Deco and pop art movements, and capturing the dynamic futurism of his time, Patrick Nagel's captivating, minimalistic style has become synonymous with the 1980s. Nagel's illustrations are a visual feast, and during his all-too-brief career, his work gained widespread recognition through his collaborations with Playboy magazine and the iconic rock group Duran Duran. With over 285 illustrations within the magazine, Nagel's paintings graced the pages of every Playboy issue between August 1975 until his death in 1984, particularly in notable columns like the Playboy Advisor, Playboy Forum, and Playboy After Hours. This exposure to a wider audience propelled the popularity of what became known as "the Nagel Woman."

The present work is an exceptional and rare example by Patrick Nagel featuring the renowned model and actress, Terri Welles, and comes from her personal collection. This stunning and bold piece holds a unique significance for several reasons. Firstly, it was gifted to Terri as part of her Playmate of the Year award in 1981 after Terri sat for Nagel in his personal studio-the first Playmate to ever do so. After the sitting, Terri received the portrait as a gift from the magazine. A one-of-a-kind hidden treasure, this artwork was never published in the magazine, and has until now remain unseen by the public for over 40 years, carefully preserved by Terri it in its original frame in her private home. This untouched and highly personal work showcases Nagel's artistry in a distinct way. Additionally, it is worth mentioning that Terri is one of the very few blondes Nagel ever painted and chose to keep as a blonde, as he often preferred to darken their hair to a brunette hue." --- Heritage Auction April 2024 Illustration Art Signature Auction
