Description from the seller
A wolf in full Napoleonic military uniform — épaulettes, medals, bicorne hat — painted with the formal gravity of an official military portrait. The historical reference is precise, the substitution of subject absurd, the combination irresistible. Oil painting depth, the palette of French imperial portraiture: deep navy, gold braid, the particular red of military ceremony. Power, ambition, and the long shadow of history — with better teeth.
An original giclee print, conceived and created by Arno Klein, published by Noble Press. Inks: Archival pigment inks, rated for 100+ years of colour stability under normal display conditions. Paper: Premium museum-quality fine art paper — 70×100 cm sheet, 66×96 cm printed area, 2 cm white border on all sides. Edition: Limited to 10 numbered prints per subject. Authentication: Hand-signed by the artist (AK, lower right) + Noble Press dry embossing seal (lower right, over signature). Each print is individually numbered in the lower centre border. Note on numbering: The photo shows an example copy. Your print will bear the next available number in the edition of 10. Condition: New. Ships rolled in reinforced protective tube.
