Full of kinetic energy and primitive myth, Yellow Dragon showcases Lindström's mastery of expressionist color theory. The mythical dragon form winds through dynamic waves of brilliant sun-yellow, vibrant green, deep cobalt blue, and rich red accents.
Channelling both the CoBrA group's spirit of raw creativity and Nordic shamanic folklore, the composition treats the viewer to thick, gestural brushwork and sweeping lines that give the print an extraordinary physical presence.
The lower margin bears the hand-written edition number 3/100 on the left margin, and the artist's original signature in silver pencil on the right, confirming its authenticity and heritage.
