About the Item

In the heart of the city, where colors blend with stories untold, legends are not born—they are made. Urban Legend captures the essence of resilience, influence, and style that define the modern cityscape. Each face, a testament to ambition; each shade, a reflection of experience. Through vibrant strokes and bold expressions, this artwork speaks of individuals who have shaped the streets, inspired movements, and left their mark on culture. They are more than icons; they are the storytellers, the dreamers, the pioneers—forever woven into the fabric of the city’s rhythm. This piece is a tribute to those who rise, redefine, and remain unforgettable. Shipping Procedure Ships in a well-protected tube from Nigeria This work is unique, not a print or other type of copy.
