Signed 4-Inch Linoleum Block Print of a Whale Shark, "Whale Shark"

Swimmers in fins circle an impressive whale shark in the clear waters of the Mexican Caribbean. Marina Pallares depicts the dramatic scene in this small-scale linoleum block print. "Such an impressive shark! In addition to being absolutely beautiful, you can swim with them off the island of Holbox," the artist says. "This series of prints has been greatly influenced by my love for the Riviera Maya — my second home." Larger than many dinosaurs, the grey fish with its distinctive spots can measure as much as 40 feet long and weigh more than 15 tons. Fortunately for swimmers, it is essentially vegan.

Tiled "Tiburón ballena" in Spanish.
