Aries the Ram 1987

"Aries the Ram" is a 1987 painting by Boris Vallejo depicting a muscular, nude man standing on a rock formation. The man’s pose is reminiscent of a classical hero, while the ram’s head, depicted in a fantastical, surreal style, hovers above him. This piece is characteristic of Vallejo’s style which blends elements of fantasy and realism. The painting is a striking example of the artist's work, which often features powerful figures and fantastical creatures.
