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 forlorn, minuscule figure stands delicately perched on the edge of an oversized bottle, gazing down toward the heart that rests alone at its base. The vast space between them heightens the sense of longing, as though the figure is suspended between hesitation and hope.

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.
