Montpellier Arc de Triomphe — Day & Night – Elegant Art Print
Modern illustrations based on original photography and digital painting — capturing the limestone elegance of Montpellier’s Arc de Triomphe by daylight and by moonlight.

A luminous, stylized view of the iconic Hérault peak. This original illustration by Ian David Marsden captures the dramatic profile of Pic Saint-Loup under a radiant starburst sky.

Full-Frame Poster | Border Edition
French Cartoon Wolf of Montpellier – Pic Saint-Loup Art Print
A cheerful cartoon wolf from Montpellier drives a red Méhari through the vineyards near Claret, surrounded by animal friends. Playful, local, and full of character.
Sleeping Kitten — Cozy Hygge Reading Nook Art Print
A warm, cozy illustration of a kitten sleeping by a fire — with tea, books, and soft plaid. Gentle storytelling in a refined style.
Whimsical Character Illustration
Just Be You – Feel Good About Yourself Art Print
A cast of animals each wearing a unique hat — from fruit bowl octopus to detective dog. Light, clever, and ideal for kids’ rooms or creative spaces.
Cultural Satire & Commentary
The Lost Art of Seeing – Museum Art Print
A museum full of kids staring at phones — while Da Vinci and the Mona Lisa react from inside the painting. About distraction, culture, and what we’re missing.
Amoeba Influencers – Biology Humor Art Print (Scientist Gift Idea)
Prehistoric single-celled organisms with smartphones. A nerdy satire on influencer culture — equal parts biology joke and character design.
Art & History
Dalí, Van Gogh, Picasso, Kahlo — Illustrated Art Print (Provence)
A hand-drawn original by Ian David Marsden imagining an unexpected artistic stroll through southern France — where Dalí holds a melting clock, Van Gogh carries his palette like a balloon, Kahlo strews flowers, and Picasso walks a cubist dog. Set against a Provençal backdrop, this illustration is not a reproduction of their work, but a whimsical cultural mash-up of art history, character, and story.
A strong piece for studios, bookstores, gallery walls, and anyone fluent in visual jokes.
About the Collection
Modicum Editions is based in Claret, north of Montpellier — and many of the works reflect the local atmosphere of Pic Saint-Loup, Mediterranean skies, and quiet village energy.
