About the Work
“This ‘Ominous Ripples’ print is a metaphor for the environmental peril we have created and the struggles future generations will face just to navigate climate-related problems like super storms, drought, famine, population displacement, and, of course, rising sea levels. We are already treading water, drowning and suffocating even if many of us haven’t comprehended the scale of the problem or reach of the ripples yet. The lack of progress on climate change and pollution is largely due to the oversized influence of deep-pocketed oil companies. Billionaires, corporations, and politicians aren’t going to save the planet so we the people need to support a transition to responsible energy sources. This Earth Day, I am proud to support Greenpeace because they uplift the people — grassroots activists, determined researchers, climate champions — who actually do the work.” — Shepard Fairey
About the Artist
Shepard Fairey (American, b. 1970) is one of the most influential street artists of his generation. A RISD graduate, he rose to prominence with the Andre the Giant Has a Posse / OBEY campaign and became globally known for the 2008 Barack Obama HOPE poster. His work is held by the Smithsonian, MoMA, LACMA, and the Victoria & Albert Museum, and he continues to release limited-edition prints through his Obey Giant studio.

How does Gauntlet Gallery verify authenticity?
Every piece is reviewed against available authentication documentation before listing. For signed prints we cross-reference COA issuers, publisher records, edition counts, signature placement, and known release details. For music and space memorabilia we work with Beckett, JSA, PSA, and Zarelli Space Authentication. Items that cannot be documented to our standard are not listed.
How do you document condition?
We photograph each print under consistent lighting to show the actual paper, frame condition, ink saturation, and any aging or edge wear. Condition notes describe observable marks, foxing, deckle wear, or print aging in specific terms — not vague labels like "good." If a piece has a flaw that affects collectibility or value, we say so explicitly. Request additional close-ups before purchase.
How is the print packed and shipped?
Prints ship flat between two acid-free rigid boards inside a corrugated outer mailer with rigid corner protection. Larger prints over 24×30 may ship rolled inside a thick-walled tube with archival tissue. All shipments are insured for full value with tracked carrier service. Framed pieces ship in custom-cut wood crates with foam edge protection. Signature on delivery required over $500.
What documentation is included?
Original COAs, publisher certificates, third-party authentication letters, and Gauntlet Gallery condition reports ship with the artwork. Every piece also gets a blockchain-verified COA on Polygon via TrueCOA, permanently anchoring provenance. Specific documentation for each listing is noted in the product description.
Why buy from Gauntlet Gallery instead of a marketplace?
Marketplaces give access but leave buyers to judge authenticity, condition, pricing, and seller credibility alone. Gauntlet adds a trust layer through detailed photos, item history, condition notes, pricing context against 50,000+ market comps, fake-risk review, and blockchain-anchored documentation. Every listing is prepared by the same curator who sourced and reviewed the piece.
