Michael Leunig's influence on cultural life in Australia through his newspaper cartoons is immeasurable. His commentary on political, cultural and emotional life spans decades and has often explored the idea of an innocent and sacred personal world.

In this original etching, a figure is captivated by the piano at which they sit. Unknowable if they are a casual player or professional musician, variations celebrates the creative passions possible to anyone. Leunig extends an invitation to rediscover the unadulterated joy of innocence and play.

Serving as a tribute to childlike enjoyment, a theme that resonates across generations, this charming work of art eagerly awaits its place in your home, promising to bring with it the enchantment and magic that characterise Michael Leunig's artistic legacy.

This etching is an artist proof preceding the numbered editions, printed by Andrew Gunnell and published in 2000 by Chrysalis Publishing.
