Hedgehog - Print
Philosopher Isaiah Berlin published an essay called,”The Hedgehog and the Fox” in it he expands on the notion attributed to the ancient Greek poet Archilochus, “the fox knows many things, but the hedgehog knows one big thing”. He explains the difference between writers and thinkers that have contrasting views,(fox) macro/big picture and (hedgehog) micro/closely focused.
However the original quote may simply mean that the fox, for all his cunning, is defeated by the hedgehog's one defense.
Reproduced from Daniel Mackie's watercolour painting, this print is printed on somerset velvet 225gsm fine art paper.

Very pleased with the print. As always!
Ordered a hedgehog and badger print, both are delightful. Prompt service items received quickly and well packaged. Very pleased with both purchases
Bought this for my daughter in law as it was on her Christmas list. Impressed by the quality and delighted with the subject. Was also surprised to receive two lovely Christmas cards in a separate parcel - were they meant for me? Please put a slip or something in the envelope to indicate who has sent it as it wasn’t until the hedgehog print arrived that I realised where the cards were from!
I am so happy with the artwork I chose!!! The print is really beautiful with lovely colors. The hedgehog and flowers are exquisitely done. It came quickly (and I live in the U.S.) so I was pleasantly surprised when it arrived.
My daughter was thrilled with this print. So cleverly designed.Gorgeous.
