This makes it very exclusive and maybe even valuable in time as I have been an exhibiting artist for decades. Not a digital print, like millions of others online, but a hand-made print taken directly from a linocut I created. (Hard work and hence limit of ten.)
If you feel uneasy about browsing shops in a pandemic, this is ideal as a unique and easy to send gift, or just to treat yourself and refresh your surroundings! Will be couriered free of charge in well-supported and waterproof packaging.

Price: $100
