Vincent Van Coyote

The Official Chuck Jones Virtual Experience is pleased to offer CHUCK JONES fans a "Vincent Van Coyote" Limited Edition work by Chuck Jones.

The Academy Award-winning animation director-artist, Chuck Jones (1912 - 2002) has created many memorable hit TV shows, movies, and short films. He is truly a legend and icon in the art world!

This rare limited edition artwork was created by animation director-artist, Chuck Jones from his vast portfolio of original and limited edition works of art.

The inspiration for this work of art came from a work by Dutch, Post-Impressionist artist Vincent van Gogh from 1889.

Around 1988, the founder of Circle Galleries (which had locations around the country and more internationally), Jack Solomon, challenged Chuck Jones with a question "What would the great Masters of the past centuries paint if they could have used your Looney Tunes characters?" Thus a series of Master Works was created in the style of great masters such as Marcel Duchamp, Toulouse Lautrec, Edvard Munch, Salvador Dali, and of course Marc Chagall.

Vincent Van Coyote is based on Vincent Van Gogh's Self-Portrait with Bandaged Ear and is one of the lithographs from Chuck Jones's MasterWorks series. These lithographs were printed and pulled on an antique Marinoni press at the renowned American Atelier and hand-signed by Chuck Jones in pencil. Limited editions from the Master Series exist in private collections as well as permanent museum collections, including one of Jones's ode to Edvard Munch,

The Scweam is a limited edition given to the Munch Museum in Oslo Norway when their original was stolen in the early 2000s. Chuck Jones was not only a legendary, iconic artist/director from the Golden Age of Animation, but he was an innovator. His ability to create a relationship between reality and its abstract representation has been a centrally enduring preoccupation for modern and contemporary art that Jones beautifully captured in this Master Work series.

The Limited Edition artwork is accompanied by a certificate of authenticity.
