An Englishman in New York – Great Dane Portrait with Burger.
“An Englishman in New York” blends aristocratic flair with surrealist irony in a mixed media artwork. This 60×80 cm canvas features a poised Great Dane in a tuxedo and top hat, presenting a cheeseburger on a silver platter — a visual juxtaposition of dignity and playfulness. Set against a stylized vintage New York skyline, the painting pays tribute to timeless elegance while embracing absurdity.
Crafted using acrylics and layered collage textures, the piece offers a rich tactile experience: gleaming skyscrapers, soft vintage hues, a crisp bow tie, and, of course, the juicy burger front and center. The muted city tones amplify the regal tones of the dog’s expression and attire, while blue eyes and a golden sesame bun provide focal points of contrast.
