About the Item
This exceptional artwork is currently on display and available for sale at Signet Contemporary Art Gallery and online.
In “Golden Path,” Nathan Neven brings a touch of the wild to the heart of London, creating a striking and thought-provoking composition. Two graceful giraffes stride confidently towards the viewer, moving away from the iconic Victoria Memorial, crowned with its resplendent golden statue of Queen Victoria. This central landmark, with its gleaming golden tones, anchors the painting and sets the stage for an intriguing juxtaposition of nature and urban grandeur.
Unlike Neven’s signature rainbow coloring, this painting embraces a harmonious palette of golden hues and warm tones that complement the giraffes' distinctive skin patterns. The golden tones of the Victoria Memorial blend seamlessly with the foreground, enhancing the natural beauty of the giraffes and creating a cohesive and inviting atmosphere. This warm color scheme contrasts sharply with the stark white buildings in the background, highlighting the giraffes and adding depth and dimension to the scene.
Neven’s “Golden Path” invites viewers to reflect on the coexistence of the natural and man-made worlds, suggesting a path where both can thrive in harmony. The majestic presence of the giraffes, juxtaposed against the iconic London landmark, evokes a sense of wonder and curiosity, challenging viewers to see the city through a fresh and imaginative lens.
The painting’s meticulous brushwork and rich textures bring the scene to life, capturing the elegance and grace of the giraffes as they traverse this golden path. The absence of Neven’s usual rainbow stripes directs attention to the intricate details and warm, inviting tones, emphasizing the serene beauty and majesty of the composition.
“Golden Path” is more than just a painting—it’s a visual journey that blends the wonders of nature with the splendor of urban landmarks. This captivating artwork is available for acquisition at Signet Contemporary Art, where art enthusiasts can experience the mesmerizing beauty of “Golden Path” firsthand. Whether strolling through the London gallery or perusing online from the comfort of home, prepare to be enchanted by the unparalleled skill and creativity of Nathan Neven’s artistic vision.
Artist Bio:
Nathan Neven , born in 1979 and living in Ireland for many years.His childhood passions were growing, drawing and painting everything around him. With His strong desire to make his dream come true to become full- time painting artist, He decided to move to Paris, one of the world capitals of Arts and Cultures, attended some short courses in Art to enrich his skills and experiences. Nathan’s art captures the moments of his dream, his living in Europe and his travel experience. He is inspired by everything around that touches his soul — the joy and beauty of life itself, the beauty of nature and his surroundings. His influences include a diverse group of impressionist artists and abstractionism. He uses the play of light, texture, color and shape and the interesting juxtapositions in our everyday lives.
I believe in the power of art. For me, each piece of art has a soul and possesses the ability to affect people’s lives. Everyday I feels blessed to be able to create his art. My style has centered upon color relationships, the presence of light, and a sense of energy.

Nathan Neven
Humpback whales flying over the streets of New York City and a house packed with pink flamingos are the types of fantastical imagery one can find in the paintings by Irish artist Nathan Neven. Inspired by the isolation brought on by the COVID-19 pandemic, his recent work blends art styles and ecosystems to create lighthearted juxtapositions full of joy and teeming with life.
Neven knew at a young age that he wanted to become an artist. He spent much of his youth in Ireland, drawing and painting what he observed. Over time, and largely self-taught, he developed a mix of realist and abstract styles. He later moved to Paris in pursuit of improving his drawing and painting skills in a formal setting. He also spent time traveling in Europe, which greatly influenced his depictions of interiors and cityscapes, which feel alive with color and detail even without the wildlife settling in.
Neven has had multiple solo shows in Japan as well as group shows in the United Kingdom, France and Ireland. Neven exhibited his work in France at the Galerie De La Vague à l’Art in La Baule in 2017 and the Galerie Cantele in Honfleur in 2018. The Montenotte Hotel in Cork, Ireland, invited Neven to be its 2022-23 Artist-in-Residence, which, associated with the Gallery Kinsale, resulted in Neven’s “Wild Life Invited” exhibition of animal portraits.
