Product description
Translating from the Greek for ‘dog-headed,’ the name Cynocephalus refers to a mythological creature that Graham Sutherland reimagined through his unique lens of organic abstraction. This print captures a seated pink primate-like figure against a moody charcoal backdrop, punctuated by a vibrant teal vertical banner and a circular mirror. The composition is defined by sharp, skeletal lines and a rich textural depth that characterizes the artist’s post-war modernist style.
There is an unsettling yet captivating energy within this scene, where the familiar form of a baboon is reimagined as something more mythical and primal. The interplay of warm rose tones against the cold, dark environment evokes a sense of introspection and mystery. It reflects a period of art history where the natural world was viewed through a fractured, psychological mirror, inviting the viewer to look beyond the surface of the animal form.
Build the wall outward from abstract art prints, then bring in modern art prints for contrast.
