About the Item

In 1962, Elvis Presley purchased one of the world’s first four-engine business jets — the iconic Lockheed JetStar. Luxuriously equipped with leather seats, a bar, a bedroom, and even a shower, this aircraft became a symbol of style, status, and the freedom of the open skies. A mysterious woman dressed in elegant black, standing before a vivid red-and-white airplane on a deserted runway. The deep blue sky and delicate clouds frame the scene, while a black cat in the foreground stares directly at the viewer. Blending realistic detail with surreal undertones, this work reflects themes of freedom, travel, identity, and modern elegance. A captivating addition for any collection, offering both visual intrigue and symbolic storytelling. Dutch acrylic paints Amsterdam tm and Italian canvas by Unico were used. The finish is satin varnish. Packed in a cardboard box with layers of bubble wrap. Signed and accompanied by a certificate of authenticity. In this evocative contemporary piece, the viewer is immediately struck by the contrast between a meditating figure and a world on fire. The man, seated in stillness at the center of the canvas, seems impervious to the flames and thick smoke rising behind him. He wears black, a visual anchor against the background chaos. Behind him stands another figure, gazing into the destruction, both observers and participants in a fractured world.
