The Flag has been an iconic image in the Jasper Johns Paintings, Prints, Works on Paper and Lead Reliefs since 1954-55, when the Artist created Flag, now in the Museum of Modern Art Collection. Mr. Johns has acknowledged his Art incorporates "things the mind already knows," like the utterly familiar American Flag.

Since the mid-1950s the Flag has appeared in approximately 30 paintings, 14 prints, and 50 drawings. In addition to single Flags, Johns has created Flags within larger fields, multiple Flags and backward or vertical Flags.

Of the 14 Prints, the red-white-blue Flag is a dominant image in 5 prints: Flags I, 1973, published by Simca; Two Flags (Whitney Anniversary), 1980, published by Gemini; Flag On Orange, 1998 and Flag and Vase, 2001, a smaller version of Untitled, 2000, published by Low Road Studio.

Jasper Johns, Untitled, 2000, incorporates the Artist's iconic red-white-blue Flag in a Color Linocut of only 38 impressions with 6 Artist's Proofs. Three of the Artist's top ten Painting auction records incorporate the Flag; since 1988, Flags I, 1973, has consistently ranked as the Artist's most expensive single Print.

Other examples of Jasper Johns Untitled, 2000 are included in prestigious Museum Collections: The Metropolitan Museum of Art; the Museum of Modern Art; The Walker Art Center; The Los Angeles County Museum of Art and The National Gallery of Art.
