Description from the seller

ARTRAT
Limited edition

Art print ’art – 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 freedom

The treatment of matter and light gives the image an almost tangible texture, between contemporary photography and Flemish painting.

Why acquire this work?

- Strictly limited edition to 10 copies
- A rare piece intended for demanding collectors
- A strong work, narrative and immediately recognizable
- Ideal to enrich a contemporary art collection or create 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 animal and human through an aesthetics inspired by the great masters of classical painting. His compositions, carefully staged, blend photography, visual narrative and cultural references.

His universe is distinguished by:

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

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

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