Description
Side Quest at Sol is a framed street photograph with an unexpected leading character: a costumed Mario beside a station entrance, holding a twisted balloon as the city carries on around him. His red cap and blue overalls interrupt the gray metal, pale stone and everyday foot traffic. The station sign supplies the title; the scene supplies the joke.
A framed street photograph with a playful point of view
The vertical composition puts the costumed figure low in the frame, beneath the broad Sol sign and a sliver of blue sky. From across the room, the architecture reads first. Move closer and the small, absurd encounter comes into focus. It is a good companion for travel photographs, graphic prints or a shelf of books with equally eclectic interests.

Choosing a size
The 12 × 16-inch option works well in a mixed gallery wall or a compact nook. Choose 18 × 24 inches to give the street scene more presence on its own. Measure your intended wall space before choosing; room images show the presentation and should not be used as a scale guide.
