size - 60" x 40" 

If this work is something of serious interest to you, and you want to add a museum quality, monumental work by Enmanuel to your collection, you might be in luck. I would encourage a conversation about this work. This is a very large painting, and we are trying to free up some space in our storage area, plus we are celebrating our 25th anniversary, so a very good deal might be possible on this.

Enmanuel's work was prominently featured in the 4th season of the Fox Television's show "Prison Break". It was used to decorate the loft space in the show, and his work can be seen in a number of episodes. 

 Enmanuel was selected to create two huge murals in Cuba. One is a 40 ft. mural at the Railway Station in Santiago, and the other is a 30 ft. mural in the lobby of the Melia Cohiba, which is the top hotel in Eastern Cuba. These are both extremely prestigious projects, and have placed this great artist in an important historical context.
