The story behind the print

This surreal poster depicts a figure with a large purple fig for a head, seated side-saddle on a detailed mackerel. The figure wears a burgundy waistcoat and red-and-white striped trousers, holding a small bunch of red grapes in one raised hand. Thin cords suspend both the fish and the figure against a plain cream background, with a few green leaves floating nearby.

The composition centres on the fish, which is rendered with visible scales, fins, and a distinct eye, while the fig head shows textured skin and a stem. The palette combines muted purples, burgundy, red, and cool greys with soft green accents. The style is illustrative and whimsical, with a watercolour-like finish and fine linework that gives the image a hand-painted quality.

This print is supplied unframed and printed to order in the UK on 270 gsm premium satin paper using a 12-colour Mimaki UCJV300-160 printer with authentic Mimaki OEM inks. Each print is rolled and packaged by hand and is available in multiple sizes through the Size selector. The design suits kitchen wall art, gallery walls, or a whimsical interior.
