Golden Delicious

‘Golden Delicious’ intertwines two beloved creatures: the humble Donkey and the suggested addition of African Wild Dogs, a concept proposed by one of my esteemed collectors. The synergy between them proves both straightforward and impactful.

Immerse yourself in the world of Golden Delicious.

Accompanied by a trio of Wild Dogs, the Donkey and the Hornbill embark on a quest for sustenance, guided by the sight of one of the King’s legendary ‘magical trees.’ Similar to the tree depicted in ‘Harvest For the King,’ this arboreal marvel boasts an improbable abundance of fruits, ranging from Granny Smiths to the coveted Golden Delicious.

While the impulsive Wild Dogs are solely fixated on physical nourishment, the wise Donkey seeks something deeper. His attention is drawn to the mythical ‘Apple of Wisdom,’ suspended from a branch below. This golden fruit, steeped in Greek mythology, symbolizes enlightenment and knowledge, a treasure not lost on the sagacious Donkey.

Golden Delicious will add a stunning accent to your space.

Observe the Donkey’s serene countenance, exuding an air of tranquility and acceptance. It’s as if he always anticipated discovering the apple, knowing its transformative potential to dispel doubts, fears, and illusions.

And do take note: the apple’s shimmering allure is enhanced by the application of gold leaf, despite the challenges faced during its creation on an unexpectedly scorching day. Lessons learned, yet the outcome remains a testament to perseverance and artistic innovation.

Indulge in the timeless elegance and sophistication of Golden Delicious.

Our Fine-Art Prints use archival papers in two weights. For everything up to – and including – our ‘Signature Editions’, we use 210gsm Fotospeed Smooth; a versatile paper that offers exceptional contrast and detail. For the larger ‘Premium Editions’, we use Fotospeed’s 315gsm NST. Thanks to subtle textures similar to traditional etching papers, coupled to bright-white bases, both of these 100%-cotton, fine-art papers deliver revelatory, impactful images that will stand the test of time. Furthermore, we only ever use OEM inks that are rich in pigments & offer a consistent level of reproduction.
