Mausoleum of Avicenna by Nico Tracey

Mausoleum of Avicenna by Nico Tracey translates a monument of Persian architecture into a graphic design work of striking visual clarity. The composition isolates the mausoleum’s distinctive tower and canopy against bold flat planes of colour, using collage to layer historical reference with a thoroughly modern sensibility. The portrait orientation gives the structure room to breathe vertically, while the controlled palette — warm neutrals meeting sharp accents — conveys both the grandeur and the geometric precision of the original form.

Produced as a canvas print in our Berlin studio, this piece takes on added warmth and depth on a cotton canvas surface. The texture enhances every tonal nuance, giving this canvas art print a physical presence that elevates the graphic composition.
