Limited Edition Stone Lithograph
A moment of tranquility, mystery, and untamed beauty—Michael Parkes’ Dusk is a breathtaking fusion of serenity and strength, inviting the viewer into a world where time seems to stand still. This exquisite stone lithograph captures the delicate balance between human grace and the wild, evoking a sense of quiet harmony under the twilight sky.
A luminous muse, draped in flowing garments reminiscent of classical antiquity, sits in peaceful contemplation, her delicate fingers coaxing an unseen melody from her flute. Opposite her, a majestic cheetah lounges, its piercing gaze filled with knowing stillness—an emblem of power, patience, and raw elegance. Above them, soft tendrils of smoke curl skyward from a ceremonial vessel, hinting at the spiritual connection between the two beings. The deep blue of the sky creates a striking contrast against the warm golden hues of the cheetah’s coat, intensifying the dreamlike quality of the scene.
With Parkes’ signature mastery of symbolism, detail, and composition, Dusk is more than just a work of art—it is an invitation into a world of reflection, where nature and humanity exist in perfect accord. A must-have for collectors who appreciate beauty, mysticism, and timeless storytelling, this lithograph will bring an air of elegance and wonder to any space.
