The Apotheosis of St. Louis is one of the most recognizable landmarks in the city — a gilded equestrian statue of King Louis IX of France, sword raised skyward, standing guard in f ront of the Saint Louis Art Museum in Forest Park. Originally unveiled at the 1904 World's Fair, it has become a symbol of St. Louis's history, ambition, and identity. This art print is a locally designed illustration of that iconic statue — rendered with a gritty vintage texture that feels like a relic from the city's golden era. Equal parts history and art, it works in a living room, office, or anywhere you want to put a little St. Louis on the wall. Printed on premium paper stock. Locally designed in St. Louis, Missouri. Makes a great gift for St. Louis natives, transplants who've adopted the city, and anyone who's ever stopped to look up at that statue and felt something. Show more
