Johan Potma, Illustrator,

Description

This vertical vintage-style illustration by illustrator Johan Potma features a quirky, shaggy one-eyed creature wearing a small bowler hat. The central subject is framed within an oval vignette on a heavily aged, cream-colored paper background with distressed edges and stains. The creature has a single large, detailed eye, a wide toothy grin, and subtle fur texture rendered in muted earthy tones. Above the oval frame, the word METROPOL is printed alongside decorative flourishes, and a handwritten date label appears at the bottom. The overall aesthetic is nostalgic and surreal, capturing the feel of an antique postcard or photograph.
