The Girl and The Balloon| Jaco Putker Grafiek
Makers price
€130,00
A girl stands in an open field holding a cluster of strings attached to a floating hippopotamus, carried like an enormous balloon. The animal hangs effortlessly above her, its great weight seemingly suspended by a handful of cords, while the girl continues on without surprise.
This softly coloured, vintage-inspired image combines gentle absurdity, understated humour, and dreamlike calm.
This polymere etching is printed by hand, and then colored by hand, in a limited edition of 25 copies on 300 grams Hahnemühle etching paper.
Each print may vary slightly.

Each print is numbered and signed, and comes with a Certificate of Authenticity.
