About the Item

This stunning Art Deco composition by Florida-based artist Alfonso T. Toran captures two swans gliding across a calm, golden-toned surface. Rendered in rich, stylized detail, the piece blends the natural grace of wildlife with the decorative geometry and glamour of the Art Deco movement. The background shimmers with warm metallic tones, complementing the crisp white of the swans and the elegant arch of the tree branches above. Toran’s precise brushwork and composition draw the viewer into a quiet moment of movement and reflection. Known for his wildlife and nature scenes, Toran brings a contemporary twist to classic forms, creating art that feels both timeless and fresh. The fantastic painting is signed lower left, comes framed, and is in excellent condition.
