It’s fair to say that Dumbo has never been imagined in this somewhat gritty illustrative fashion before, not to the best of our knowledge anyway. Yet the merest mention of the name, Mark Davies ensures that this illustrative transposition is in safe hands, nonetheless. The much-celebrated contemporary fine art exponent’s interpretation of the equally loved Dumbo, pictorially focuses on the unshakeable and indeed, unbreakable bond between the elephant and the stork. The stork who originally delivered Dumbo to his mum. The bigger picture created by Davies however visually dwells on the forlorn Dumbo sat in a battered circus train carriage unwilling to come out, surrounded by graphic evidence of those that have contributed to his lack of confidence and self-worth. On an altogether cheerier note, Davies’ ‘Perfection Through the Eyes of a Stork (Dumbo)’ represents his brand new Spring 2018 giclee limited edition, and can be ordered with immediate effect. A move we’d suggest you made sooner rather than later, given the fact only 25 hand-signed examples have been launched.

The contrast between dark and light is never far from the surface of this very latest hand-signed and embellished giclee limited edition from one of the country’s finest contemporary art practitioners, Mark Davies. Visual references are discovered at every turn, from the feathers littering the carriage to the scrawled messages and a burning ringmaster’s whip; not to mention the knives which are pictured protruding from the carriage wall. The African elephant who inspired the book and subsequent film, Dumbo is observed in more melancholy mood, watched over by the trusty stork who once brought him into this seemingly cruel world; and continues to act as his guardian angel. ‘Perfection Through the Eyes of a Stork (Dumbo)’ is offered in this deluxe iteration as of this Spring 2018, and is destined to attract a lot of attention and purchasing interest amongst both Davies fans and seasoned collectors alike. Hence why all parties should speak with us about the availability of this stunning 47.5" x 35" piece here and now to avoid potential disappointment further down the line.
