No Good Choice depicts a stormy coastal landscape, reminiscent of Victor's time in the Orkney Islands. Harsh and unforgiving, the environment symbolizes the fraught relationship between Victor and the Creature, which has reached a point of no return. While a vague light glimmers in the distance, the stormy sea makes the hope of reconciliation dim. Victor and the Creature are like waves against the rocks, neither willing to relent to the other.
With a strong mottled texture and warm base tone, we’ve sourced a Hahnemühle German Etching paper that creates a print with strong colors and deep blacks to give that rich, high in contrast feel. Since the pronounced texture of the paper enables it to hold more ink, this paper gives each print a handmade crafted feel.
Prints are shipped flat in a protective parchment sleeve in between two sheets of stiff cardboard to keep prints flat in transit. If the artwork is damaged in any way during shipping, please contact us right away with photographs documenting any such damages. We will seek to address the damage to customer satisfaction on a case by case basis.

"At this point in the story, it is clear that Victor’s fate is irrevocably linked to the monster’s. The harsh conditions of the stony shore embody this reality and point towards the impossible choice he must make."
