Description
Jean-Michel Basquiat's Bird on Money (1981) is an homage to jazz legend Charlie Parker, whose nickname was "Bird." The painting captures Basquiat's signature fusion of words, symbols, and bold color, layered with references to music, mortality, and memory.
Basquiat often painted with jazz playing in the studio, and Parker's improvisational spirit resonated deeply in his work.
This 500-piece jigsaw puzzle is engaging both as a pastime and as an opportunity to reflect closely on this iconic painting. The keepsake box closes with a magnetic clasp and is designed to display on a bookshelf or coffee table.
