Ozymandias (unique, signed Abstract Expressionist painting by renowned painter)
By Ben Wilson
Located in New York, NY
Ben Wilson
Ozymandias, 1989
Oil on masonite board
Boldly signed by Ben Wilson on the back
36 × 48 inches
Unframed
Provenance: acquired from the Estate of Ben Wilson
This work is titled "Ozymandias" after the famous sonnet written by Percy Bysshe Shelley (1792-1822). Shelley's poem is one of the most poignant meditations on the fleeting nature of human power and the inevitability of decline. The poem serves as a reminder that time erodes even the most imposing empires and leaders and that the pursuit of lasting fame and control is ultimately futile.
Depending on how one views Ben Wilson's Abstract Expressionist painting of "Ozymandias" -- some of the imagery might reveal the head of an angry king and a sickle.
Shelley's poem Ozymandias reads:
I met a traveler from an antique land...
