Artwork Description
Anonymous Pharaoh 2Vth Papyrus Artwork Giclee Limited Edition Print on Egyptian Papyrus by Pop Culture Graffiti Artist Marwan Shahin.
2021 Signed & Numbered Limited Edition of 50 Artwork Size 13.77x17.71
Drawing from the fervent spirit of the Egyptian revolution in 2011, Marwan Shahin's "Anonymous Pharaoh" seamlessly melds historical reverence with contemporary dissent. Crafted in 2021, this artwork on genuine Egyptian Papyrus not only captures the zeitgeist of a pivotal moment in Egypt's modern history but also elevates it into the realm of high art. This unique piece measures 35cm x 45cm, creating a space where the iconic symbolism of the pharaoh, reminiscent of ancient Egyptian glory, is juxtaposed against the modern emblem of resistance - the face of 'Anonymous'. The artwork's potency is further intensified by its gilding with black diamond dust, adding a shimmering layer of intrigue and depth. While Marwan Shahin's street art rendition of the "Anonymous Pharaoh" was celebrated amidst the tumult of the revolution, this fine art print is the first of its kind, marking its inaugural release on papyrus since its inception. The exclusivity of this creation is highlighted by its limited availability, with only 50 prints ever made, each handcrafted meticulously at Shahin Studios in Egypt. What further sets this artwork apart is its incorporation of modern technology. Each piece comes equipped with a crypto-chip, allowing for the artwork's registration and authentication on the blockchain. This ensures the piece's provenance and solidifies its place as a collector's item. With his signature, numbering, and branding, Shahin not only authenticates each artwork but also embeds a piece of his soul, making "Anonymous Pharaoh" a beacon of pop art, street art, and graffiti art convergence.
