AI-assisted summary
Description from the seller
ABOUT THE ARTWORK
NAPOLEON
Napoleon appears here at full charge, mounted and unmistakable. The composition is all movement, control and ambition.
The electric blue background, cut with red accents, gives the piece a vibrant and confrontational energy, while the stencil keeps the figure sharp and instantly recognizable.
This is a contemporary tribute to a timeless historical figure — a strong statement piece for collectors drawn to power, legacy and iconic French history.
ABOUT THE ARTIST
Alexandre Petrus is a French stencil artist with a strong and instantly recognizable visual identity. His signature technique — the hand-cut double-layer stencil — separates light and shadow into two distinct stencils, layered onto a spontaneous, hand-painted abstract background. The result: a sharp, iconic figure rising from a vibrant, textured chaos of color.
To date, 450+ artworks sold in 10+ countries, from France and Spain to the Netherlands, Germany, the UAE, and the US. He has performed live painting for major French institutions including Disneyland Paris, created large-scale murals for corporate headquarters, and exhibited in several French street art festivals (Grimaud, Perpignan, Venelles). His work is currently shown at Galerie Spot 72 in Le Mans.
His subjects move between mythology, pop culture icons, wildlife and emotionally charged scenes. Whatever the theme, the signature remains: precise stencil work, instinctive background, and the small smiling "AP" monogram — Alexandre's two initials fused into a face — sprayed on every original piece. His street art roots also live through POPCHIPS, a project in which he places small original paintings in urban spaces, creating unexpected encounters between art and passers-by.
Each artwork is a unique original. No prints, no identical editions: every background is painted individually and spontaneously on the canvas, making each piece different. The same stencil design may be used in other original paintings, but every background and colour composition is individually created. Each hand-cut stencil is strictly limited to a maximum of 50 original artworks. Once that limit is reached, the stencil is permanently retired. A deliberate choice to preserve scarcity, protect the identity of each series, and avoid diluting the value of the work.

Seller's Story
French stencil artist, I present here original works entirely handmade.
Each piece is created on canvas using stencils that I design and cut myself, then reinterpreted on unique and spontaneous backgrounds.
My work is inspired by pop culture, mythological figures, artistic icons and contemporary characters, with an aesthetic blending street art and contemporary art.
All works for sale are unique pieces (no edition, no reproduction), signed and accompanied by a certificate of authenticity.
I ship each work with the utmost care, in secure and tracked packaging, to France and internationally.
