Animals at the Olympics 59

Fresh from victory, a French rooster remains seated proudly in his single scull boat on the Seine, a medal glinting around his neck and a beret still perched neatly on his head. Reporters lean over the dock with microphones while photographers crowd close, eager to capture the champion’s words. The river shimmers in painterly detail, Paris landmarks rising behind as flags wave in the distance. Rustic humor and national pride combine with whimsical artistry, crowning the rooster as the Olympic hero of the water. This artwork is available as a matte print.
