SYNOPSISOn the outskirts of Clarksdale, Mississippi, at the end of a secluded dirt road sat a small ramshackle church. It was not a place of worship but rather where many went to seek refuge during impoverished times. Legend has it the structure was transported to the wild mint field by hand, hoisted on the shoulders of two dozen men. The outside remained simple and nondescript, but the interior was aglow with pilfered neon signs, Christmas lights, and a jukebox donated by the sheriff’s son. It was a distinctly secular place where locals who knew where to find it could share moonshine, socialize, and dance their troubles away. They called their ramshackle juke joint Saint Julep and the oral histories compiled within paint a picture of that magical place where “the smiles are always free and salvation had the distinct smell of sweet mint.”

Sebastian K. ★★★★★

The paper has a real heft to it, not that flimsy poster stuff, and the heavy matte finish makes the colors feel deep and moody. It's a big piece, nearly three and a half feet tall, and it completely anchors the wall in my living room.

Eva L. ★★★★★

The print arrived rolled in a sturdy tube with zero damage, and the 27" x 39.5" size fills my wall perfectly. The heavy matte finish gives it a gallery feel, and the moody church scene draws you in every time you walk past it.

Jacob ★★★★★

Heavy matte paper makes the colors look almost velvety in person, and the 27" x 39.5" size is a real statement piece above my couch. The church scene has this moody, quiet energy that pulls you in every time you pass by.
