Man with Tongue out 1 Framed Printed canvas

Parody wall art is not how we imagine 17th century Dutch artist Michel Jansz van Miereveld envisioned his oil on canvas painting of Sir John Borlase from 1625 being used but Graphic Artist Kirin Young who is one of our more prominent exponents of tongue in cheek art has given it a twist. The Tongue collection takes traditional pre 18th century portraits and keeps their grand formal aesthetic but injects some fun by the simple use of poking the tongue out.
