APOLLO LUNAR MODULE APPROACHING ITS LUNAR LANDING LOCATION, GICLEE PRINT SIGNED BY ASTRONAUT ALAN BEAN, No. 15 of limited edition. Bean (1932- 2018) was an American astronaut who flew to the moon aboard Apollo XII and was the fourth person to walk on the moon. After his NASA career he became a painter. He wrote, "I had been painting earthbound subjects for many years by the time I returned from Apollo 12 and Skylab 3 missions, but my fellow astronauts convinced me to paint my experiences on the moon. 'You can create the very first paintings in all of history of a place other than our own planet,' they said. 'Your paintings will forever be the first paintings of the many other worlds humans will visit as the centuries unfold.'" - Unframed, 22 in. x 16 in.
