A portrait of Alexander Michelis by Swiss symbolist painter Arnold Böcklin, rendered in a muted palette of browns and creams, conveying a sense of introspection and isolation.
Arnold Böcklin (1827-1901) was a Swiss symbolist painter, sculptor, and graphic artist. He is best known for his enigmatic and melancholic works, which often draw on classical mythology and themes of death and the sublime. Böcklin's art influenced the development of Surrealism and other modern art movements. He taught at the Weimar Academy. His most famous works include 'Isle of the Dead' and 'War'. This portrait depicts Alexander Michelis, a figure with closed eyes and a contemplative expression. The subject is rendered in a muted palette of browns and creams, which contributes to the painting's overall sense of introspection. The sitter is dressed in a dark coat, a white shirt, and a loosely tied tie. The composition is simple, with the focus on the face and upper body of the sitter. The background is a dark, undefined space, which further emphasises the subject's isolation.

Beautiful print, great quality and love it with the white frame. Delivery was really fast. I've had loads of compliments from visitors as I've hung it in my hallway as the first thing you see when you enter the house. Couldn't be happier.
