About the Item
Warrior and Pegasus Fight the Kraken - Original Surrealist On Board
Dramatic and dynamic fantasy scene by Russell R. Tripp (American, 1942-2025). This piece depicts a warrior atop a luminous, winged steed, poised to strike a monstrous sea serpent amid crashing waves. The artist balances movement and tension, using bold contrasts of light and shadow to heighten the scene’s intensity. The detailed rendering of armor, musculature, and fluid water convey a sense of power, while the stormy sky and rugged cliffs enhance the epic atmosphere.
Monogram "RT" in the lower left corner.
Board size: 30"H x 24"W
Russell Tripp (American, 1942-2025) enrolled in art classes at ten years old, beginning his path to become a professional artist from a young age. He went on to study at the Academy of Arts in San Francisco, graduating in 1964. Tripp was a prolific artist, despite the level of detail in his pieces. During the height of his career, he was selling paintings as quickly as he could produce them.
