Description
Rafael Colón Hand Painted Violin (El Niño)
The artist Rafael Colón pays tribute to the Met’s production of Adams’s El Niño. Details from the opera are dramatically featured on this hand etched and hand painted violin.
Each beautifully painted, collectible violin is one of a kind. It is hand drawn, wood burned, and hand painted on front and back by the artist in his NYC studio using oil, acrylic, and marker paints. The violin comes with a bow, a case, and a display stand, and can be displayed on a shelf, piano, or any flat surface.
Rafael Colón’s work is in the collection of the Queen of Sweden, The Reginald F. Lewis Museum in Baltimore, the Tony Hawk Foundation, and others. His art has been featured at El Museo del Barrio and at The Asia Society New York City.
