'Totally Absorbed - Matilda' by celebrated British illustrator Quentin Blake
Is a wonderfully charming piece. Blake is world-renowned for his instantly recognisable illustrations and his extraordinary ability to capture warmth, wit, and boundless imagination with a few effortless strokes. This artwork brings to life the beloved character Matilda from Roald Dahl's classic story-curled up with a book, completely lost in its pages. The scene is alive with Blake's trademark expressive linework and splashes of colour, perfectly evoking Matilda's love of reading and her spirited, intelligent nature.
This piece is a limited edition giclée print on high-quality textured paper, created using Blake's distinctive pen, ink, and watercolour style. The artwork is printed to archival standards, ensuring the vibrancy, spontaneity, and fine detail of the original illustration are beautifully preserved.
