The Roulin Bhoy Limited Print

FREE UK Shipping

The Roulin Bhoy reimagines Van Gogh’s portrait of Armand Roulin, eldest son of the Arles postman, placing James McAvoy into the bold yellow jacket and direct gaze of the original.

Van Gogh painted the Roulin family with great affection, capturing not only likeness but personality, youth and quiet strength. Here that same format is renewed through one of Glasgow’s most acclaimed contemporary actors, whose journey from working-class roots to international recognition brings fresh energy to the pose.

This piece celebrates the idea that portraiture can hold both history and reinvention, Armand Roulin becomes a doorway into a modern Glasgow story: familiar, ambitious and full of presence.

All limited edition prints are produced in A3 size. Each print is individually numbered and hand-signed by the artist, making every piece a unique collector’s work.
