"We Live in Paradise" is a 1972 artwork by Friedensreich Hundertwasser, an Austrian artist known for his vibrant colors, organic forms, and rejection of straight lines. This piece reflects his philosophy of harmony between nature and humanity, featuring bold, swirling patterns and a dreamlike composition. Like much of his work, it embodies his ecological and utopian ideals.

Hundertwasser was an Austrian visual artist and architect who also worked in the field of environmental protection. Hundertwasser stood out as an opponent of "a straight line" and any standardization, expressing this concept in the field of building design. His best known work is the Hundertwasserhaus in Vienna, which has become a notable place of interest in the Austrian capital, characterised by imaginative vitality and uniqueness.

Hundertwasser's comment on the work, "I lived and painted for a long time all alone in an old mill on the Kamp, with kerosene lamps, wood-burning stove and water from the brook, equidistant from four villages. One of these was Grossweissenbach. You got there by going first through the woods and then through the fields. "

Because of the age of these posters, there are areas of wear and tear, particularly on the edges. I have done my best to take photos where they are torn or stained. The good news is that when framed, the tears press up well against glass, and edges can be hidden by mats. Any wear picked up from years are part of the vintage charm.

These posters are sent as unframed. They will be delivered in a cardboard tube for protection.
