70s’ Grateful Dead Scarlet Begonias Shirt Mongo Arts – Psychedelic Retro Elegance

Immerse yourself in the psychedelic counterculture and timeless lyrical poetry of American jam rock with our 70s’ Grateful Dead Scarlet Begonias Shirt. Debuted in 1974 on their album From the Mars Hotel and written by Jerry Garcia and Robert Hunter, Scarlet Begonias became one of the Grateful Dead’s most iconic concert staples, famous for its dreamy storytelling set against the bohemian backdrop of London’s Grosvenor Square.

The artwork pays tribute to the song’s vivid imagery through an elegant, Alphonse Mucha-inspired Art Nouveau poster design. Enclosed within an ornate archway, a graceful maiden adorned with red blooms in her hair is surrounded by swirling, draped flowing robes and a flock of bluebirds rising into a vibrant golden-yellow sunset.

Curved gracefully at the top is the header SCARLET BEGONIAS, while the bottom features the immortal lyric handwritten in classic vintage typography:

“The sky was yellow and the sun was blue.”

The soft earth tones, organic lines, and distressed print finish bring an authentic 1970s concert art aesthetic to life. Whether you are a devoted Deadhead, an admirer of vintage 1970s concert poster art, or a collector of classic rock graphic tees, this 70s’ Grateful Dead Scarlet Begonias design offers a truly poetic and artistic piece of Grateful Dead heritage.
