"The Promised Land" is a limited edition giclee canvas in the size of 16" x 24 1/2". This is the image that became known as De La Nuez's signature piece. This is his commentary on it: "My initial concept for this piece was based on Moses leading people in the desert to the Promised Land. I thought that it would be funny to have a young couple asking Jesus for directions to the Promised Land and he points them to Las Vegas. This piece would not have worked using any other city than Las Vegas because it is known as Sin City and everyone can relate to having had a “sinful” time in Vegas at one point or another. People read all different types of meanings into this artwork, so it really is open to interpretation, but it has become my signature piece—one man even showed me the tattoo of it he got on his arm." Limited edition pieces are owned by the mayor of Las Vegas, Teller (Penn & Teller) and many well known comedians. One now hangs in Barry Manilow’s dressing room at the Hilton hotel in Las Vegas where he performs.

This is also available as a larger hand painted piece (look under 1 of a kind Canvas Dept..)
The sides are colored blue so there is no need for framing! Shipping is included in the price.
It will ship FedEx.
