This mesmerizing fine art print summons the mysteries of the deep sea with a portrait of the Marbled Ghost Shark, Hydrolagus marmoratus, a denizen of the inky abyss. The original illustration by natural history artist Dr. Lindsay Marshall captures the alien beauty of this rarely-seen creature, from its marbleized skin to its cat-like eyes peering into the darkness. At once whimsical and scientifically accurate, this coastal-inspired artwork is a unique find for any ocean aficionado's home decor. Whether displayed alone or as part of a gallery wall, this hand-drawn portrait of a chimaera straight out of a Jules Verne story is sure to spark conversation and transport viewers into the uncharted waters of the imagination. For sea life lovers and art collectors alike, this fine art print is a chance to possess a piece of the unplumbed depths—no scuba gear required.


BACKING BOARDS. Backing boards are provided upon request for small and medium prints. They are not really required if you are going to frame your print soon and will end up going in the rubbish. As a small business owner who is concious about my environmental impact I like to provide this as an option. Small and meduim prints are sent flat in rigid mailers and large prints are sent rolled. If you specifically would like to buy a large print with a backing board I can arrange this. It just might cost a little extra in postage. :)
