Bringing together tradition and contemporary culture, this Jean-Michel Basquiat Skateboard Triptych features a reproduction of Basquiat's work Trumpet (1984). The bright striking colours, the stick-figures, the references to historical figures and occurrences, the signature writing of words and poetry and having them crossed out; not to forget his love of Jazz. 'Trumpet' was the work of Basquiat in his element. It features an image of an individual playing a trumpet while wearing a crown on a white background with a deep red on the fringes.
