About the Item

Thierry Despont, best-known as a very successful architect, was also an accomplished artist. In his paintings and sculptures, when not analyzing the smallest, most detailed creatures of the natural world (such as fish or insects) he was at work on its largest — in this case a Rhinoceros.
