This piece is a reimagining the classic protagonist Sephiroth, war-hero and Shinra SOLDIER turned embittered and apocalyptical agent of destruction in the classic video game Final Fantasy VII. It is named after the characters signature musical track One Winged Angel by Nobuo Uematsu.
 
This depiction shows him after his acceptance of his JENOVA cell infusion and the iconic single black angel wing that symbolises his ascent to godhood. This ascension also led me to a more ethereal feel for the overall piece with the dreamlike cloudscape for the background and the fading of his overcoat and lower quarter. I had originally envisioned this with Sephiroth hanging in the air in flight but felt a bit superheroish so I scrapped it for a more vague dissolution below the waist.
 
This was conceptualised in MidJourney then drawn with a stylus on a Cintiq.
 
The final portrait is 20,000px x 14,145px which makes it over 282 megapixels in size. With a pixel density this high the reproduction is exceptionally fine, especially considering the world leading quality of pigment ink and paper used in the printing process.
 
All prints are giclée printed using genuine Lucia Pro pigment inks (archival ratings of up to 200 years) to a selection of Hahnemühle, Photospeed and Canson papers and can be supplied either print only or mounted and bespoke framed. Please note the mounts and frames will increase the overall size of the final framed portrait as the sizes below are for the print only.
 
All frames are ethically sourced solid wood and are fully sealed both at the rear of the frame and between the back mount and the glass to keep your portrait dust free.
