THE most exciting artist specializing in Antinous art has just informed us he has opened a new online gallery with more than 50 new portraits of Antinous.
British artist ANDREW PRIOR is offering these exclusive high-quality prints HERE.
Andrew is a brilliant modern-day interpreter of the ancient technique of encaustic style portraiture ... like the Fayoum/Antinoopolis MUMMY PORTRAITS.
His paintings were exhibited parallel to lectures by JOHN J JOHNSTON entitled Antinous: Gay Icon? at London's Petrie Museum of Egyptian Archaeology as part of Gay History Month.
Andrew practices his art in a wide array of media including works on paper, canvas and wood, DIGITAL ART, fashion design, interior design and jewellery design ... even exquisite hand-tooled Antinous shoes!
He often works to commission, but also uses the inspiration of the ancient Mediterranean for his creations.
