Cloaked in a saffron robe as exotic as his shadowed features and the flowing Arabic inscription that surrounds him, this Nubian epitomizes a timeless dignity. Trained at the Copenhagen Academy, artist Monsted was best known as a prolific painter of Nordic landscapes. His travels to North Africa informed this amazing portrait that melds free brushwork with sumptuous color. The authentic stretched canvas replica painting captures the original work's texture, depth of color, and even its bold brushstrokes, which are applied by hand exclusively for Design Toscano. Our replica European style 3.5" wide frame is cast in quality designer resin and highlighted with a beaded inner border and an antiqued ebony finish.
