Gauntlet Gallery — Sandra Chevrier Print Index
The Beauty Of Liberty And Equality
Summary
The screenprint edition of The Beauty Of Liberty And Equality is a 10-color print measuring 36 by 24 inches on Coventry Rag 100% cotton archival paper with hand-cut deckled edges. Signed and numbered by both Sandra Chevrier and Shepard Fairey, it was issued in an edition of 200 in 2020.
Why It Matters
This is the premium, hand-pulled form of the Chevrier x Fairey collaboration: 10 colors, cotton rag stock, deckled edges, and dual signatures in a run of only 200. The craftsmanship and joint authorship make it the flagship edition of the image and a marquee crossover piece between two collectible practices.
Collector Perspective
Dual signatures by both artists meaningfully elevate desirability. Confirm both pencil signatures, the numbering out of 200, and the intact deckled edges. The 10-color screenprint on Coventry Rag is a step above the offset version. Its larger 36-by-24 format and hand-finished stock reward careful framing and preservation.
Historical Context
Marking the 19th Amendment centennial in 2020, this screenprint represents the definitive collaboration between Chevrier and Fairey on the suffrage theme. It unites Chevrier's Cages portraiture with Fairey's propaganda-poster idiom, produced to fine-art standards during a period of frequent artist collaborations in the print world.

About the Artist
Sandra Chevrier is a Canadian contemporary artist based in Montreal, best known for her ongoing series La Cage, in which she paints delicate female portraits partially overlaid with comic-book imagery. The superhero panels function as a metaphorical "cage," exploring the pressures, expectations, and idealized roles imposed on women. Her mixed-media works combine painting, drawing, and vintage comic collage, and she has exhibited internationally and collaborated on projects including a notable series with Hendrik Beikirch. Chevrier's editioned prints translate her intimate, layered originals to a wider collector audience.
