Donald Duck Fine Art Print on wove paper Signed lower right, numbered lower left: 14/150 Sheet size: 61,5 x 80,5 cm / Plate size: 47,8 x 70 cm Donald is probably the most human figure in the history of fine art. Although he consists only of a thin black line and does not look like a human being at all, but rather reminds one of a duck, there is no figure in the entire history of art that so closely reflects all facets of the human soul. [...] In him we recognize our fears, our insecurities and weaknesses, our stupidities and vanities, our malice, our envy and our simplicity. But also that stubbornness with which we get up again and start anew after every defeat, after every failure and after every catastrophe. That makes it one of the most important works of art of all time. (Gottfried Helnwein)
