Always Proud Of You Fabio Napoleoni Stretched Canvas Art Appraisal

Always Proud of You - Fabio Napoleoni Stretched Canvas Art

This item is an unframed, rectangular stretched canvas artwork by celebrated artist Fabio Napoleoni. The piece features Napoleoni’s signature character, 'Marcenivo,' a stitched, rag-doll-like figure representing human emotion and resilience. Marcenivo is depicted in a melancholic but sweet scene, wearing a light blue baseball cap and holding a wooden bat next to a ball in a stylized forest. To the left, a sign pinned to a gnarled, textured tree reads 'ALWAYS PROUD OF YOU' in red and black lettering. Two blue birds and shimmering pink glitter hearts are positioned at the base of the tree. The background is a lush, atmospheric blend of vibrant greens and yellows with textured, line-heavy tree trunks that lean toward the center. The artist’s signature is visible in the lower-left corner. The craftsmanship displays rich color saturation and detailed cross-hatching typical of modern illustrative fine art. The condition appears excellent with taut canvas stretching and no visible fading or surface abrasions, though the presence of genuine glitter highlights suggests it is likely a hand-embellished limited edition print or an original work. The style is contemporary pop-surrealism, likely produced within the last 10-15 years.
