Love Ise, love The Fountain, but this one doesn't hit the mark for me. It's not bad by any means, but it doesn't get the juices flowing like some of her other posters. Maybe it's the colors, maybe it's Rachel Weisz and/or Hugh Jackson... not sure, but it feels off somehow.

I always thought Slater's Fountain variant was underrated. Just wish it was 24 x 36 instead of 24 x 35.5 or whatever it is.

Just make sure to include the price in both dollars and older Stouts when this gets listed.

The one on the previous page is the variant. This is the reg.

I think it kicks all kinds of ass. Princess Bride is probably still my favorite of her works so far but this is a close second.

The Fountain reg is the only Ise piece that really has that wow factor to me

Should look better in person on the pearlescent paper it's printed on.
