~Old Man and the Sea~ High quality print, 8x10 inch

This piece was completed with ink and pen on toned 'Strathmore' paper, and illustrates a scene from Ernest Hemingway's 'The Old Man and the Sea', 1952.

The scene depicts the simple fisherman's epic struggle with the mythically large Marlin off the coast of Cuba.

'You did not kill the fish only to keep alive and to sell for food, he thought. You killed him for pride and because you are a fisherman. You loved him when he was alive and you loved him after. If you love him, it is not a sin to kill him. Or is it more?'
― Ernest Hemingway, The Old Man and the Sea

Printed on high quality Kodak XTRaLIFE Premium Picture Paper.

'Old Man and the Sea' has been released as a limited edition numbering 1 - 50. Each exclusive print is assigned a number and includes a signed declaration from myself, the artist.

Strathmore toned paper, ink
