This fine art print beautifully captures the charm of a folk art painting by british artist matt rix, presented in his signature naïve style. The scene depicts a large dark grey sperm whale gliding through a wavy blue ocean, its tail breaching the surface in a graceful arc. Nearby on the horizon, an early steamship with sails makes its passage — its brown hull lined with neat portholes, red flags fluttering from the mast tops, and a gentle drift of smoke rising from the funnel into the open sky.
the print is presented under glass in a hand-painted black frame with a gilt inner edge. The wooden frame has been prepared, painted, and lined with antique papers on the reverse by the artist, making this piece a unique work of art.
printed on premium 350gsm art paper, the image retains vibrant, faithful colours that reflect the warmth, simplicity, and character of the original painting. A timeless and evocative piece that celebrates the spirit of maritime folk art and the distinctive craftsmanship of matt rix.
the framed fine art print measures approximately 35cm x 26.5cm overall. It is ready to hang.
