AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

ARTRAT
Limited Edition

Art print — Limited edition of 10 copies
Format: 70 x 50 cm

Description of the work

In a hushed atmosphere with painterly accents, a mouse stands upright, fragile and determined, proudly holding a tricolor flag. The light, soft and dramatic, evokes the great masters of classical painting, giving the scene an almost sacred dimension.

The animal, often associated with discretion or survival, becomes here a symbol of courage, resilience, and hope. The contrast between the delicacy of the subject and the strength of the national symbol creates a poetic tension that immediately engages the viewer.

This work invites multiple readings:

• A metaphor of individual resistance in the face of challenges
• A celebration of the dignity of modest beings
• A subtle homage to universal values of liberty

The handling of material and light gives the image an almost tangible texture, somewhere between contemporary photography and Flemish painting.

Why acquire this work?

• Strictly limited edition to 10 copies
• A rare piece for discerning collectors
• A powerful, narrative work that is instantly recognizable
• Ideal for enriching a contemporary art collection or creating a focal point in an interior

Each print embodies a dialogue between humor, poetry, and symbolic depth.

Artist Biography – ARTRAT

ARTRAT is a contemporary artist whose work explores the relationships between animals and humans through an aesthetic inspired by the great masters of classical painting. His carefully staged compositions blend photography, visual storytelling, and cultural references.

His universe is characterized by:

• a theatrical lighting, close to chiaroscuro
• a subtle humanization of the animal
• a symbolic and philosophical dimension

ARTRAT’s works question our gaze on living beings and reveal, with poetry and sometimes irony, the nobility of the most unexpected figures.

Present on the international stage, ARTRAT is exhibited in several galleries and contemporary art platforms, where his limited editions meet growing success with collectors.
