The piece is titled "Duke" and depicts a magnificent steed.

The silkscreen was created during the life of the artist, and the screen created for this edition was destroyed after printing. The piece has been signed by the artist in the lower right corner and titled and numbered 56/100 in the lower left. The piece also has a small remarque underneath the signature. The piece measures 45" x 36.5", and will also come with a certificate of authenticity. Guillaume Azoulay was born in Casablanca, Morocco in 1949, and by age thirteen was sketching and selling his drawings on the street and at fairs. He has held major exhibits in Rome, Copenhagen, Monte Carlo, Reno, Paris, Tel Aviv and many other cities. In 1978 two of his works were accepted into the permanent collection of the Louvre Museum in Paris, and he is the youngest artist to be accepted in to their permanent archives.
