Acrylic and Marker on canvas, measures 87 x 110, signed with certificate of authenticity A painting with a strong visual impact belonging to street art and neo-expressionism, with a marked influence of Jean-Michel Basquiat's style. The composition is dominated by a skeletal anthropomorphic figure with a golden crown on its head and large red eyes. In the right hand it wields a sharp greatsword, while in the left it supports a kind of shield or ball decorated with stylized graphemes. The background, white and textural, is enlivened by strokes of pure color (primary yellow, bright blue, red and black) and by graphic symbols, hieroglyphs and stylized figures. The use of black incisive lines and bold color blocks laid down with impact conveys a raw, visceral, and urban energy, playing on the contrast between royalty, mortality and contemporary chaos.
