As the premier copy of an elite edition restricted to only 10 copies worldwide, this work holds supreme historical and investment value for discerning collectors of modern master prints. Sheet Size: 29.9 × 21.7 in (76 × 55 cm) Medium: Original Lithograph on Fine Arches Paper Rarity: Ultra-Rare Artist's Proof (EA I/X aside from the main edition) Condition: Pristine / Excellent condition. The vibrant pigments remain extraordinarily rich, fresh, and perfectly preserved. Signature: Hand-signed by the artist in white pencil / chalk directly over the image (bottom right) Infused with the raw energy of the CoBrA movement and Nordic mythology, this vibrant composition features Lindström's iconic shamanic forms and totem-like figures. Framed by intense contrasts of electric red, golden yellow, cobalt blue, and deep purple, the piece radiates an almost theatrical vitality through thick, gestural black outlines. The bold primitive imagery captures the essence of Swedish folklore and ancient ritual masks, transferring Lindström's signature physical brushwork onto paper with powerful tactile presence. The lower margin bears the artist's original hand-signature in white pencil on the right and the highly desirable premier Roman numbering E.A. I/X on the left, guaranteeing its authenticity and direct relation to the artist’s hand.
