Description from the seller
THERE IS ONLY ONE IN THE WORLD - EDITION 1/1
With this vertical-format work, Medsan stages a red dragon curled atop its vast treasure deep in an underground chamber, while a small hero ventures among the piles of gold — a direct homage to Smaug and Bilbo in J.R.R. Tolkien's The Hobbit.
The treatment adopts the style of fantasy illustration and vintage posters: ornamental frame, patinated paper, finely drawn ink lines and gilded highlights. The scaly creature sleeps on a mountain of gold, gems, weapons and cups, beneath Gothic vaults lit by torches. Below, tiny and fearless, the thief advances with muted steps. The cartouche メドサン crowns the composition.
The work resurrects the universal archetype of the treasure-guarding dragon, a figure of greed and the initiatory test. The face-to-face of the sleeping behemoth and the small intruder embodies the courage of the weak before power, the beating heart of every great adventure. Medsan captures its epic breath and magic.
An epic, immersive piece, ideal for adding a fantastical and adventurous touch to a contemporary interior of a collector of fantasy and heroic fantasy.

About the Workshop:
Atelier Joconde is a workshop of artists gathered around a living and plural contemporary creation. Established as a real place of artistic production, the workshop operates both in collective creation and in individual approaches, depending on the projects and works. Atelier Joconde is also a family adventure. Le Yack, a painter-artist of contemporary figurative art, develops a narrative and introspective body of work with cinematographic and realistic influences. Alongside him, Medsan, oriented toward pop art painting, explores color, modern iconography and visual culture. Finally, Neo Pablo engages in a more instinctive search, blending abstract art, art brut and figurative abstraction. Each work is conceived, realized and followed within the studio, with a common artistic standard and a unique identity for each artist.
