THE WORK:
Sphinx 2 passerby P/A (2020) is a line engraving on a zinc plate, artisanal printed in the artist's workshop. This artist's proof forms part of a very limited edition.
The work, with a clearly surreal character, combines recognizable elements to build an evocative scene: a sphinx inspired by the façade of the Archaeological Museum of Madrid dominates the composition, while a passerby, seen from behind, advances toward it from an open and enigmatic space.
Created on Grabado-Arte paper in wheat tone (46.5 × 35.5 cm), this piece stands out for its technical quality and its symbolic atmosphere, ideal for collectors of contemporary graphic art.
This work is shipped with a certificate of authenticity with a photograph of the work, dated and hand-signed by the artist.
Shipping is carried out with the work properly protected between cardboard sheets. Not rolled.

Seller's Story
Juan Álvarez Cebrián, a Spanish painter with a long career. His work is based on figurative and realist styles and also touches on abstract art. He currently lives and works on the outskirts of Madrid. A passionate advocate of drawing. His themes are varied; he does not like to be pigeonholed into a single subject. He works with the figure, landscape, nature subjects, even surrealism. A staunch defender of good technique in art, he has studied the great masters and, for that reason, was a copyist of works at the Prado Museum in Madrid for a few years.
