Description George Rodrigue (1944 – 2013) This numbered silkscreen work featuring the iconic Blue Dog by George Rodrigue is painted in his signature bold, flat-color pop-art style. This particular image shows the Blue Dog wearing a purple Mardi Gras mask with gold and green accents – very Louisiana Carnival themed – and the face is split blue on the left and green on the right, which is a classic Rodrigue composition trick. The work of art is signed ‘Rodrigue’ and marked from the Estate of George Rodrigue. This limited-edition posthumous work is numbered 333 out of the edition of 450 prints and comes handsomely framed and accompanied with a certificate of authenticity from the Rodrigue Studio. It is one of the most recognizable and collected Blue Dog images, especially popular with people who love New Orleans, Madi Gras, or George Rodrigue’s work in general.
