Peter Doig's Fisherman is a signed limited edition print from the celebrated Black Palms portfolio, published by Griffelkunst-Vereinigung, Hamburg in 2004. The fine art print presents a solitary figure partially absorbed into a dense, dark field animated by flashes of yellow, creating a charged tension between figuration and abstraction. Characteristic of Doig's prints and paintings, the image evokes memory and atmosphere rather than narrative clarity, allowing landscape and figure to merge into a psychologically resonant scene.
Printed on 250 g/qm Zerkall paper by Druckatelier Fritze Margull, Berlin, and published in 2004 as part of the Black Palms series, Fisherman is hand-signed and dated by the artist on the verso. The etching reflects Doig's painterly approach to printmaking and his sustained exploration of isolation, perception, and dreamlike space.
