Celebrated for his dreamy paintings and being a pioneer of Surrealism, René Magritte has appropriately been deemed an Art History Hero by Today is Art Day. In homage to the avant-garde artist, they've created a Magritte action figure, complete with a “floating” face-covering apple, iconic black bowler hat, and his signature ceci n'est pas une pipe. Like his Vincent van Gogh and Frida Kahlo counterparts, this 5-inch painter packs a big punch for such a tiny toy.
Details

- Each toy comes with a little easel and masterpiece to display. Magritte has The Son of Man, The Treachery of Images, Golconda, and The Red Model.
- Action figure is 5” tall and made of PVC plastic.
