Fine Art Prints
Premium archival matte fine art paper, 200–230 gsm. Smooth, bright white surface with an instant-dry coating that resists fingerprints and smudging. Printed with archival inks for accurate color and high-contrast reproduction. FSC-certified sustainable paper.
Framed Prints
Solid wood frame, roughly 0.875″ wide, available in light, black, or white. Protected by shatterproof optical-grade acrylic — lighter and safer than glass, and it ships without risk of breakage. Dry-mounted to foam core with a kraft paper dust cover and hanging wire installed, ready to hang out of the box.
Production
Every piece is made to order. Nothing sits in a warehouse — your print is produced after you order it, at the facility closest to your address. That means it reaches you faster, travels less distance, and arrives with a smaller carbon footprint than something shipped from a single central location.
Mohammad Reza Pahlavi drawn as street art — heavy black outline, halftone shading and a palette of magenta and teal, lit like a bar sign against a brick wall. He leans on a desk in a decorated military tunic with a cigarette holder in hand, and the whole figure carries a neon rim light that makes the portrait read from across a room.
- Magenta and teal neon lighting over a graffitied brick ground
- The Lion and Sun sprayed on the wall behind him in gold, sword raised
- A pink neon sign reading Shahanshah — King of Kings — in Persian script
- A full campaign ribbon bar, gold buttons and a signet ring, drawn detail by detail
- An ashtray, a set of keys and scattered papers along the desk edge
- A green neon caption reading THE SHAH at lower left
The Lion and Sun on the wall is the Shir-o-Khorshid, an emblem with astrological roots that appeared on Iranian coinage from the twelfth century and served as the national symbol of Iran until 1979.
Perfect for
- Bars, games rooms and dark-walled interiors
- Street art and neon-poster collectors
- Iranian households wanting something less reverent than a formal portrait
- Statement gifts for a friend with a bold wall
