Bagdad (P10) is a Diasec-mounted chromogenic print on aluminium composite panel, executed in 2014 by Gerhard Richter — one of the most celebrated, institutionally recognized, and widely collected artists in the history of postwar art — numbered from the edition of 500, published by HENI Productions in London, and presented framed.

Gerhard Richter occupies a position of absolute centrality in the history of contemporary art. Born in Dresden in 1932, Richter has built across seven decades a body of work of extraordinary range, intellectual ambition, and technical mastery — spanning photo-paintings, abstract works, glass pieces, and editions — that has consistently attracted the highest critical recognition and the strongest results in the international auction market. His practice is rooted in a sustained and deeply serious interrogation of the nature of painting, photography, and the image itself — questions of representation, memory, abstraction, and the relationship between the visible world and the pictorial surface that give his work a philosophical depth and lasting relevance entirely consistent with his status as the most important living European painter.

The work is in excellent condition.
