TAO MASTER #5 - BLACK FRAMED CANVAS

This artwork is a satirical print of the famous 'The Astronomer' painted in 1668 by the Dutch Golden Age master Johannes Vermeer.

The 'speech bubble' design has been created by the British design brand Mineheart, which is well-known for its surreal, playful twists on classical historical paintings.

This specific framed variation adds a modern comic speech bubble over the that reads: "The journey of a thousand miles begins with one step."

The ‘Tao Master’ collection of art works bring together the old masters of fine art, and the wisdom of Taoism, the western and eastern, the yin and the yang, in a continuous and harmonious exchange.

Renaissance and Baroque masters searching for a “Way” to express and capture life through their paintings, and Taoism whispering the path (or “Way”) for a more enlightened and balanced life.

This little masterpiece is printed on stretched canvas and presented in a wooden frame crafted from black stained ash.
