“Lying Lioness”

“Wild Beauty” is a series of Black and White Art Photographs by Animal Artist Stéphane Alsac, known for his strikingly realistic paintings of animals. The artistic intention of this collection of monochrome photos is to create a dialogue between the African wild animal and the viewer. The black and white photo brings out the shapes and textures of African animals and thus emphasizes the raw strength of the animal and its wild beauty. Stéphane Alsac invites you to plunge your eyes into those of the Lion, to touch the texture of the Elephant’s trunk, to feel the leopard hiss through these artistic black and white and sepia photos. The atmosphere of the African savannah takes you on a magical photo safari. Original photographic prints are limited to 25 copies. The photo is signed by the wildlife photographer and numbered. Choose the size and look of your photo:

– Classic Format: a “silver” quality digital photo print for lovers of monochrome photography. The photo is printed on 60x42cm Hot Press Bright Matte Photo Paper that reveals shades of deep blacks and pure whites. The shades of gray desired by the Artist are respected. We recommend a framing under anti-reflective glass for this size: matte black baguette, mat and white Marie-Louise for an elegant finish.

– Print on “Awagami”: the traditional Japanese photo paper for Fine Art Photography Purists. This high-end paper is made using ancestral methods. Its texture and its fringed edges provide a satin finish softening the contrasts. The shades of gray are sublimated. We recommend the frame in a thin black American box for this paper. The frayed edges are visible and the photograph seems to float in its frame. Optionally, we suggest leaving the glass without, for a “tactile” rendering but at the risk of damaging the photo; or we offer museum quality anti-reflective glass.

– Print under “Acrylic glass”: Very trendy, this print allows very large formats without frames. The print is glued between an acrylic glass and an aluminum plate. The photography then offers deep contrasts for a powerful and modern effect. No framing is needed for this edge-to-edge panorama like an open window on African wildlife.
