Richard Franklin 'Achelous' Large Framed Mixed Media Print
Description
A large framed artwork identified through market consensus as ‘Achelous’ by Richard Franklin. This piece is a mixed media print or giclée on canvas or board, featuring an abstracted representation of a classical male bust or statue, likely Achelous, the Greek river god. The composition utilizes distressed and dripped paint effects in a muted palette of white, blue, brown, and gold highlights, giving the work an intentional aged patina. The artwork is presented in a substantial, deep, gold-toned frame featuring ornate, high-relief foliate and scroll motifs consistent with a Baroque or Rococo revival style. A small auction sticker bearing the text “FINE ART AUCTIONEERS” and “LOT 10” is affixed to the surface in the upper right quadrant.
