About Little Star

The artwork titled “Little Star” was created by the artist Mark Ryden in 1997. Executed on canvas and oilcloth, this piece is part of the “The Meat Show” series and belongs to the figurative genre within the Lowbrow Art and Surrealism art movements.

The artwork features a central figure, a young girl with an oversized head and large, expressive eyes, dressed in elaborate, old-fashioned attire. She wears a crown and holds a scepter, exuding a regal presence. Beside her, a small, suited man holds a star labeled with the number 6, and a delicate, bird-like creature stands near her. The background consists of a surreal and dream-like landscape with various intricate details, all encased in a richly ornate frame that carries an inscription at the bottom. The overall composition melds elements of whimsy, fantasy, and unsettling beauty characteristic of Mark Ryden’s distinctive style.
