"ANCIENT RESOLUTE" - ORIGINAL PAINTING
$1,600.00
Description
70 × 50 cm | Acrylic on canvas
“Ancient Resolute” is a dramatic acrylic portrait that captures the immense, enduring strength of the natural world. Learry began this piece with a dedication to showcasing the elephant's wisdom, capturing it at the precise, low-contrast intersection of raw power and profound antiquity.
This piece started as Learry's exploration of the 19th-century naturalist aesthetic, translating the raw emotion of a vast, untamed landscape through the spirit and compositional style of masters like Audubon and Traviès. In this portrait, Learry utilizes the clarity of acrylic to enhance the focus on texture and atmosphere: the dominant, low-contrast light that sculpts the elephant's features, the dust-choked air that glows with muted sienna, and the powerful sense of time. The finish is a deliberate blend of modern material with a vintage, matte appearance.
Measuring 70 x 50 cm, this original acrylic painting is a one-of-a-kind piece. Signed by Learry and utilizing acrylics to achieve a timeless, museum-style composition, "Ancient Resolute" is not merely a painting—it is a reconstructed relic, an invitation to step back into a bygone era, and to stand witness to the silent, magnificent stoicism of the ancient king.
In addition to the original, only 10 limited edition signed, museum-quality prints, faithfully reproducing the visible brushwork and canvas grain, will ever be created. Once sold, no further reproductions of that format will be made.
Care
To ensure the longevity of your valued acrylic artwork, proper care is essential. Display your painting away from direct sunlight and extreme temperature changes, which can cause subtle fading or structural stress over time. Since dried acrylic is slightly soft, it can attract and hold dust; gently clean the surface with a soft, clean cloth (like microfiber) or a feather duster, being careful not to rub hard. Avoid harsh chemicals or solvents for cleaning; simple distilled water is often enough for spot cleaning, especially if the artwork has been protected with a professional final varnish. When handling, try to only touch the edges, as the oils from your skin can transfer to the surface.

Our dedication to excellence extends far beyond the materials we select; it encompasses the precision, heart, and craftsmanship illustrated in every piece we create. Each original painting is the culmination of meticulous study, careful composition, and a commitment to detail, ensuring every work is not just made, but masterfully designed.
