This isn’t the first time that Nigel Mason has been inspired by a classic car to a certain highly illustrative end, as previously (at least, in this very same debut limited editions collection) the contemporary figurative artist in the current spotlight – and moreover experiencing a true ascendency – has captured the graphic likeness of a Fiat 500. However in this equally engaging 7.75” squared vignette (entitled, ‘Lift’), the artist-of-the-moment has painted an iconic and instantly recognisable Citroen 2CV in close proximity to a stylishly attired woman, or vice versa. Bearing Mason’s moniker and restricted from launch this Spring 2016 to a mere 195 examples, this giclee on canvas iteration is – along with the other 7 parts of this bigger Mason portfolio-debuting picture – is destined to put the multi-talented creative on the modern art map once and for all.
