This is an example of Pierre-Marie Brisson’s work. He is a highly regarded contemporary French artist known for his "archaeological" style—using heavy texture and carborundum etching to make modern pieces look like ancient frescoes or cave paintings.
Elevate your collection with this exquisite original work by world-renowned French contemporary artist Pierre-Marie Brisson. Known for his distinct "fresco-like" aesthetic, Brisson blends primitive symbolism with modern abstraction. This piece features a central totemic figure rendered in his signature textured style, evoking the feeling of an ancient relic discovered in a modern era.

Medium: Carborundum Etching with hand-applied color/texture on heavy handmade paper.
Edition: Limited Edition, numbered 72/75 in pencil (lower left).
Signature: Hand-signed by the artist in pencil (lower right).
Framing: Professionally framed in a sleek black gallery frame with a "floating" mount to showcase the beautiful deckled edges of the paper.

Unique Features:
Tactile Texture: Unlike standard flat prints, Brisson uses the carborundum technique, which creates a thick, embossed, three-dimensional surface that invites the eye to explore its depth.
Deckled Edge Paper: The piece is executed on high-quality, heavy-weight paper with rough, organic edges, adding to its "found artifact" charm.
Rarity: With only 75 pieces in this edition worldwide, this is a rare opportunity for collectors of contemporary European art.
