About the collection
Les Sentinelles is Totem Sauvage's collection dedicated to the eagle and the masters of the sky. It opens with Le Veilleur, a large Isorel panel cut to the silhouette of an eagle with spread wings, caught at the instant of swooping: a wall relief that seems to advance into the room. Each piece is executed in acrylic with a palette knife. Feather after feather, the knife lays down a living material that raking light reveals; the silhouette cut gives the bird its full wingspan, impossible to render in print. The eagle is the totem of vigilance and vision: the gaze that dominates, that sees far, that keeps watch. Each work is unique, signed by Camille and accompanied by its certificate of authenticity.
Three eagles painted with a palette knife, each one of a kind
Les Sentinelles, a collection of three eagles painted with a palette knife
Les Sentinelles brings together three eagles painted in acrylic with a palette knife on an Isorel panel cut to the bird's own silhouette. There is no frame: the piece mounts directly on the wall and takes the shape of the animal, from beak to talons. Each painting is one of a kind, signed by the artist and delivered with its certificate of authenticity.
The collection holds three available pieces, Le Veilleur, L'Embrasé and L'Impérial, priced from 890 to 950 euros depending on the piece. Sizes range from 76 x 85 cm for the most compact to 130 x 122 cm for the largest, enough to dress a narrow hallway or a wide living room wall.
What size fits your wall?
The three Sentinelles sizes range from 76 x 85 cm to 130 x 122 cm. Because the panel follows the eagle's outline rather than a rectangle, the actual footprint on the wall depends on the bird's wingspan and posture: it is worth measuring directly on the wall, using the exact dimensions of the chosen piece, before deciding.
Every product page on the site offers augmented reality: open it from a phone and the eagle appears at true scale on your own wall, with nothing to hang or install. It is the most direct way to know whether Le Veilleur, L'Embrasé or L'Impérial will sit well above the sofa or in an entryway.
How can you see the knife-painted texture before buying?
On the pages of L Embrasé and L Impérial, a raking light sweeps across the image as you move a cursor or finger over it, revealing the relief left by the knife, the strokes and the ridges of paint that a flat photo never shows. That texture is what sets a knife-painted piece apart from a printed reproduction.
Moving the light across the painting before ordering lets you judge the real texture of Le Veilleur, L'Embrasé or L'Impérial, not just the composition and colors seen in a photo. It is a useful step when choosing between two pieces of similar size.
What makes a knife painting different?
Knife painting means laying the acrylic directly with the blade instead of a brush: the paint stays in relief, in ridges and flat planes, and every gesture remains visible in the thickness. It is a technique that cannot be corrected with a brushstroke afterward, which makes each painting strictly one of a kind.
The Isorel panel, cut to the eagle's silhouette, follows the same logic: the piece is not a rectangle with a subject painted inside it, it is the animal itself that becomes the object hung on the wall. The site's blog covers this technique in detail in an article devoted to knife painting.
How does delivery work?
Delivery is free within mainland France for any order placed on the site. The piece ships signed, together with its certificate of authenticity, and its cut panel mounts directly on the wall, with no frame to plan for or buy.
Going frameless changes how it hangs: no glass, no mat board, just the panel itself. Checking the spot with the augmented reality tool before shipping avoids surprises once the piece is unwrapped.
How do you reserve a piece?
A Sentinelles piece is paid for directly, either in full or with a 30% deposit. Paying the deposit holds the painting for three months, giving time to confirm the spot or wait for the right moment to complete the purchase.
In this collection, a sold piece does not come back: once Le Veilleur, L'Embrasé or L'Impérial is hanging with its buyer, it exists nowhere else. The deposit lets you secure a choice before the decision is fully settled.
Le Veilleur, L'Embrasé, L'Impérial: three eagle stares
Le Veilleur, L'Embrasé and L'Impérial each carry a different name for the same subject, the eagle. Sizes range from 76 x 85 cm to 130 x 122 cm, and prices from 890 to 950 euros depending on the piece chosen.
Each title has its own page, with augmented reality to judge scale and texture before deciding which of the three will find its place on the wall.
Can you commission a custom eagle?
Beyond the three available pieces in Les Sentinelles, a custom commission starts at 720 euros. It is a different process: the piece is worked out with the artist rather than chosen among already painted works.
To understand what owning an original changes compared to a reproduction, the site's blog devotes an article to the question, worth reading before choosing between an existing Sentinelles piece and a custom commission.
