Title: POPEYE DOYLE (FRENCH CONNECTION)
Artist: Niels Shoe Meulman
Year: 2019
Medium: Sumi ink and acrylic on handmade paper with deckled edges
Size: ± 75 x 55 cm

Popeye Doyle (French Connection) by Niels Shoe Meulman is a dynamic tribute to Gene Hackman’s iconic role in The French Connection. Created in 2019 during the Bed-Stuy Art Residency in Brooklyn, New York. The sumi ink and acrylic interplay on handmade paper with beautifully deckled edges, offering a striking contrast between controlled brushwork and organic flow.

With Hackman's recent passing, this artwork not only captures the gritty spirit of Popeye Doyle but also stands as a timely homage to a cinematic legend.
