About the Item
This exceptional artwork is currently on display and available for sale at Signet Contemporary Art Gallery and online.
In “Trafalgar Square,” Nathan Neven transforms one of London’s most iconic landmarks into a surreal and captivating scene, blending the majesty of the natural world with the heart of the city. The painting features two elephants gracefully strolling towards the famous lion statues, creating a striking and thought-provoking contrast between these majestic creatures and the regal, stone guardians of the square.
The foreground captures the elephants in motion, their presence adding a sense of wonder and fantasy to the familiar urban landscape. This intriguing juxtaposition invites viewers to ponder the harmony between wildlife and the man-made environment, suggesting a world where both can coexist peacefully.
Further into the painting, the bustling energy of London comes to life with the presence of familiar red buses and the iconic skyline, featuring landmarks such as Big Ben. These elements are bathed in the soft glow of a light blue sky, which illuminates the scene and adds a sense of serenity and openness.
Amidst the buildings and skyline, vivid green textured trees create additional contrast and depth, drawing the viewer's eye across the composition. These trees, along with the traditional street lamps dotted throughout, add to the surreal and whimsical atmosphere of the painting. The leading lines formed by the buildings and skyline guide the audience’s gaze through the scene, enhancing the narrative and visual journey.
Neven’s expert use of color and texture brings this fantastical vision of Trafalgar Square to life, blending reality with imagination in a way that is both enchanting and thought-provoking. His dynamic brushwork and playful approach infuse the painting with energy and charm, inviting viewers to explore this reimagined cityscape.
“Trafalgar Square” is more than just a painting—it’s a celebration of creativity and the boundless possibilities of the imagination. This captivating artwork is available for acquisition at Signet Contemporary Art, where art enthusiasts can experience the mesmerizing beauty of “Trafalgar Square” 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.
