The original poem Keny wrote along with the painting and written in Keny’s own hand on back of canvas:

In the frost's embrace, a figure stands alone,

Carved of will, his spirit set in stone.

Wim Hof, the Iceman, a moniker well earned,

Through ridicule and doubt, respect he's turned.

His eyes, a challenge to the frigid air,

In the clasp of cold, he finds solace there.

A beard of frost, a testament to his claim,

In the biting chill, he whispers his name.

A mad genius, some have voiced in jest,

Yet in his madness, a truth confessed.

For in his veins, the ice runs clear,

A call to the wild that few dare to hear.

In the canvas of life, he paints with a shiver,

Each breath a stroke, each plunge, a river.

His mastery, a dance of mind over matter,

Disproving skeptics, their doubts now scatter.

From endotoxins to the power of will,

He showed the mind's strength, extraordinary skill.

Now etched in science, a truth once cloaked,

In the annals of medicine, his theory invoked.
