It is a process of printing on art paper using very high-quality pigment inks and printed in very high definition. Its level of conservation is exceptional (more than 100 years), its quality, depth, and richness of nuances exceeds the classic photo print on Argentic paper.
Glossy finish
Apart from its exceptional thickness, the fiber paper is composed of an alpha-cellulose base without acid and it is covered with barium sulphate, and a microporous layer absorption enhancing pigments during printing. A pure white color, non-yellowing to light, this paper is especially designed for resistance and aging. It is used by major museums worldwide as it offers excellent resolution, rendering deep and dense colors.

Dans la mythologie grecque, Balios est le nom d'un cheval immortel, fils de Zéphyr, le dieu du vent de l'Ouest, et de la déesse de la terre, la nymphe Harpyie Podarge. Balios est souvent associé à un autre cheval immortel, Xanthos, et ensemble, ils sont appelés les "chevaux de l'Aurore".
Selon la légende, les chevaux de l'Aurore ont été offerts à Peleus, le père d'Achille, comme cadeau de mariage par Poséidon, le dieu de la mer. Peleus a ensuite donné les chevaux à son fils, qui les a utilisés pour tirer son char lors de la guerre de Troie.
Balios est réputé pour sa vitesse et sa beauté exceptionnelles, et est considéré comme l'un des meilleurs chevaux de la mythologie grecque.
La légende de Balios et Xanthos a été popularisée dans l'Iliade d'Homère, dans laquelle Achille pleure leur perte après leur mort au cours de la guerre de Troie.
La puissance et la force du cheval sont souvent représentés pour symboliser la vigueur, l'énergie, la liberté et l'endurance.
Mon travail
J'ai cherché à capturer la majesté et l'élégance du cheval dans cette œuvre et à représenter les qualités physiques et mentales associées à ce formidable être.
Pour évoquer cette force, cette puissance, cette vitesse ainsi que la beauté de Balios j'ai utilisé des couleurs à la fois vives et froides mais pas nécessairement des coups de pinceaux puissants. Cette puissance j'ai plutôt voulu la saisir au travers de mon choix de palette mais aussi dans la dureté des traits et des saillies musculaires.
Dans l'ensemble j'ai voulu au travers de cette parenthèse mythologique évoquer et célébrer toute la beauté et de la grandeur de cet animal majestueux.

Richard Routin, a contemporary French artist, traces his artistic journey back to his earliest childhood memories, driven by an unwavering quest for freedom. Drawing and painting have always served as a sanctuary for him, offering a release from the constraints of reality and the anxieties of disappointing others.
For Richard, art is not just a form of expression; it is a necessity, a lifeline that has accompanied him throughout his entire existence. From his earliest recollections, he cannot recall a moment when he was not compelled to pick up his pencils and brushes.
Despite eschewing formal art education, Richard's dedication and passion have fueled his exploration of personal artistic paths. Through trial and error, he has forged his own creative identity, unencumbered by the confines of traditional instruction.
The motif of the horse in Richard's work stems from a profound encounter — not only with his wife, who shares his deep connection to these majestic creatures, but also with the inherent symbolism of freedom and unity embodied by the horse. This symbiotic relationship, where the human becomes instinctual and the animal reveals human-like emotions, serves as a wellspring of inspiration and introspection for Richard.
Influenced by artistic luminaries such as Phidias, Géricault, Degas, and Picasso, Richard's work reflects a fusion of diverse impressions and influences. He is particularly drawn to the magical realm of artists like Bartabas, who demonstrate the inseparable bond between art and the horse, blurring the boundaries between these two worlds.
Today, Richard Routin embraces a new phase in his artistic journey, one characterized by a desire for connection and vulnerability. By sharing his sensitivity and emotions through his art, he seeks to evoke a profound response in others, inviting them to experience the intoxicating sensation of artistic expression.
