About the Item
This artwork confronts the viewer with a contemporary allegory: a dark figure in a gas mask against a field of yellow flowers, beneath a grey, unsettled sky. It is a bold and symbolic composition, where human vulnerability meets the quiet persistence of nature. The mask strips individuality, transforming the figure into a universal symbol of survival and isolation. The flowers, however, speak of renewal and hope, offering a counterbalance to the unease. For collectors, this painting is not only visually striking — it is a statement piece, an invitation to reflection and dialogue that resonates far beyond the canvas.
Dutch acrylic paints Amsterdam tm and Italian canvas by Unico were used. The finish is satin varnish, and the edges are painted in the background color. This painting is created on a pre-stretched canvas on a wooden frame. It is carefully packed in a cardboard box with layers of bubble wrap. The artwork is signed and accompanied by a certificate of authenticity.
