Product details

Inspired by The Beastly Beatitudes of Balthazar B, this literary art print channels J.P. Donleavy's darkly comic portrait of upper-class confusion and longing. The design evokes Balthazar's fumbling journey through boarding schools, Parisian streets, and ill-fated romances with a restrained elegance that mirrors the novel's sardonic wit. A sophisticated addition to a home library, study, or gallery wall — ideal for fans of satirical fiction, students of 1960s literature, and readers who appreciate coming of age stories told with equal parts humour and heartbreak.

The Square edition of The Beastly Beatitudes Of Balthazar B is a literary art print in balanced, symmetrical composition — designed for gallery walls and curated layouts. Its square format makes it elegant in any literary display.

✦ Square-format print with three exclusive colour variations (Style X, Y, Z)
