Citrus sinensis

Citrus sinensis

This is the giclée print (fine art print) of my drawing Citrus sinensis. The original drawing was made with sepia-coloured ink on paper.

Price: 30 EUR

Size: The size of the paper is A4 (21 x 29.7 cm) and the print is 19 x 27.7 cm.

Paper: It is printed on archival, thick paper (270g/m²) with a delicate texture.

Edition: This is a limited edition of 30 prints and I sign each print at the lower margin. I include a certificate of authenticity to each print.

Frame: The print comes without a frame. I recommend you frame it with an A4 frame or with an A3 frame and passe-partout.

About the work: Citrus sinensisis the second drawing from the series Plants of Andalucia, made with sepia-coloured ink. When living in southern Spain, I was absolutely overwhelmed by the amount of oranges all around. My Slavic eye, used to the grey surroundings decorated with red glass balls in December, was constantly surprised by bright orange fruits growing on green trees along the street. So, I decided to turn this impression into a drawing that will remind me of the sunny winter times in Andalucia.

Citrus sinensis, just like Punica granatum and Olea europaea, depicts a natural symbol and flavour of Spain. The orange for me is also the symbol of the sun. It always makes the winter warmer and cosier, and I hope that this artwork will bring the sun, warmth and a cosy feeling to your home. Winter, beware!

Citrus sinensis makes a nice couple with Punica granatum. Have a look at Punica granatum print too and consider purchasing them together.
