Product details

A bookish literary art print of The Pearl by John Steinbeck — a spare parable of fortune and ruin set along the coast of Mexico. This minimalist poster evokes Kino's discovery of the great pearl, the promise of escape from poverty, and the darkness that follows. Its clean lines and understated design honour Steinbeck's moral fable with quiet restraint. A thoughtful addition to a home library, study, or reading nook for book club members, students of American literature, and readers drawn to tales of human folly and fate.

The Square edition of The Pearl 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)
