“The Explorer” – Limited-Edition Woodcut Print by Roman Klonek (49 × 64 cm, Edition 4/15, Unframed)
Inject a bolt of bold, folkloric energy into your walls with The Explorer, an ultra-limited woodcut by Polish-German print master Roman Klonek. Combining Eastern-European folklore, vintage cartoons and pop-art punch, Klonek’s half-human, half-animal “adventurer” marches through a jungle of razor-red plants and inky clouds—tongue out, curiosity first.

About the Artist

Behind the Blocks
Klonek hand-carves each birch plywood matrix, inks with rich, water-based pigments and burnishes the sheet with a traditional baren. The result: crisp lines, velvety blacks and a red that practically hums.

Import duties prepaid for US & EU collectors.
14-day return window—buy with confidence.
Framing Tip
Pair The Explorer with a slim, black maple frame and UV-protective plexi to spotlight the red-black-white palette while safeguarding the paper for decades.
