Cutting through that road is a waterway, a nod to the bodies of water Rodrigue often included in his early landscapes of Louisiana.<\/p>\n<p>The print edition of Blue Road to Glory employs the split fountain effect, a sophisticated printing technique that produces subtle gradations of color across each print. This method, which Rodrigue utilized in his early Blue Dog prints, has been meticulously applied to this edition to replicate the nuanced variations of blue shades observed in the sky of the original painting. The intentional use of the split fountain process enhances the individuality of each print, as the hand-pulled quality inherent to this method may result in slight variations that underscore the uniqueness of every piece in the edition. <a href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=_Z_bqowCUbY\">View a video presentation here.<\/a><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p><em>*Price and availability subject to change without notice, sold unframed.<\/em><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p><i class=\"\"><\/i><em>All prints sold directly by the Rodrigue Estate are also accompanied with a certificate of authenticity indicating the number of the print purchased from the estate.<\/em><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<div class=\"\">Original Silkscreen by George Rodrigue<\/div>\n<div class=\"\">Designed 1999\/Printed 2024<\/div>\n<div class=\"\">12 x 16 inches (image)<\/div>\n<div class=\"\">Estate Edition of 175<\/div>\n","protected":false},"featured_media":17986,"template":"","meta":{"_acf_changed":false},"product_brand":[],"product_cat":[41,60],"product_tag":[],"class_list":{"0":"post-17985","1":"product","2":"type-product","3":"status-publish","4":"has-post-thumbnail","6":"product_cat-estate-stamped-blue-dog-prints","7":"product_cat-estate-stamped-prints","8":"product_shipping_class-prints","10":"first","11":"instock","12":"taxable","13":"shipping-taxable","14":"purchasable","15":"product-type-simple"},"acf":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v27.5 -
