ART-068 Jovan Obican — "Doctor & Pregnant Lady" Signed Silkscreen, Edition 43/175, 29.5" × 26" (image 15.25" × 22"), Matted

A signed and numbered silkscreen by Jovan Obican — a French painter and printmaker best known for his folk-inflected figurative work rendered in bold, bright colors with confident black outlines. This example, edition 43/175, depicts a doctor in a colorful fez hat pressing a stethoscope to a pregnant woman's belly — a characteristic Obican subject combining humor, warmth, and his signature illustration-like figuration.

Obican's work occupies an appealing niche: accessible, joyful, and collectible without requiring specialist knowledge, with genuine signed limited editions at an approachable price point. His prints are popular with collectors of folk-influenced figurative art, as well as buyers looking for distinctive, conversation-starting wall pieces. The medical subject — doctor and expectant mother — gives this particular print obvious appeal for obstetric and medical office settings, as well as residential interiors.
