Peter Smith Pompidoo's French Fancy Filly Limited Edition Print - This limited edition giclée print on canvas is a work by Peter Smith, featuring a surrealist composition from his well-known Impossimal series. The artwork depicts a large, white, whimsical creature whose elongated body is fused into the form of a light blue four-drawer dresser with golden pulls. Two smaller, similar creatures emerge from one of the open drawers. The scene is set on a stone balcony overlooking a lush green landscape under a bright blue sky. The canvas has a textured finish that mimics the appearance of oil paint brushstrokes and impasto, particularly on the fur of the creatures and the metallic drawer pulls. The artwork bears multiple marks of identification. In the corner, there is a hand-painted black monogram consisting of a stylized P and S. In the other corner, the piece is hand-numbered 22/95 in black ink. The work is housed in a wide, ornate silver-toned wooden frame with a classic repeating scroll and leaf pattern, complemented by a white-finished wooden inner liner.
