Ernest Trova (1927-2009) was an American painter and sculptor associated with the art movements of Surrealism and Pop Art. He is perhaps best-known for his body of work known as _Falling Man_. _Falling Man_ centers upon an armless human figure that Trova explored in a series of paintings, sculptures, and prints. Trova considered the series an exploration of human nature and human imperfection. Heavy and oversized items may require additional shipping.
