Product Description

Lighter on the wall, just as sharp. Neoclassical Pop Art's lilac version is a separate Pop tribute, new art in a lighter key. Lilac softens the yellow and green so this print reads airy above a desk or bed.

“Caricature” in yellow, lilac and green is Neoclassical Pop Art's airy take on the graphic artist Wenceslaus Hollar's “Caricature” (1645, after Leonardo da Vinci), from the Metropolitan Museum of Art, New York. Lilac lightens the joke for a desk or bedroom wall.

During the 16th century, caricature art was regarded as a highly-esteemed art form.

Although Leonardo da Vinci is widely known for his achievements as a painter during his life, his caricatures, comics, and grotesque were regarded as some of his most popular and influential artwork. One can say they bridge between the ancient Medieval world visions of Bosch and Bruegel and the succeeding 17th-century graphic art.

Da Vinci's observation of human physiognomy and fascination with unusual and eccentric features gave birth to unique grotesque drawings he titled "visi monstruosi" -monstrous faces inspiring Hollar's artwork.

The 16th-century art historian, Giorgio Vasari, implies that da Vinci was stalking the people adopted as a model for these drawings and noted da Vinci was 'so delighted when he saw curious heads... that he would follow anyone who had thus attracted his attention for a whole day, acquiring such a clear idea of [them] that when he went home he would draw the head as well as if the [person] had been present."

The Neoclassical Pop Art artwork brings forth a colorful decorative appropriation of both da Vinci and Hollar's work. If you like caricatures and comics, this work is just right for you.

Easy to hang, impossible to ignore.
