Over Here, 1977/2025

Tom of Finland is widely regarded as one of the twentieth century’s most influential artists for his groundbreaking representation of the male figure. A master draftsman, whose passion for both his medium and his subject matter enabled him to become a powerful cultural force, Tom gave form to an imaginative universe that in turn helped fuel real-world liberation movements and enabled gay men to access their strength in new ways. Tom’s drawings reaffirm the centrality of sexuality, joy, and the body in all areas of human endeavour. This elegant study of a leatherman showcases Tom of Finland's draftsmanship, later the finished drawing would appear on the eponymous vodka from Finland. The edition comes with a certificate of authenticity signed by the Tom of Finland Foundation.
