About the Item

A stunning, beautiful nude dancer exhibiting ideal proportions and crowned with an ornate floral headdress holds a luminescent Japanese Lantern. The lantern glows, and the dancer glows back in this light-infused painting. The background shows a Japanese screen with cranes. The painting exudes a lush, joyful sensuality. The effect is both visually lovely and provocative. It is signed lower right. It is elegantly housed in a Spanish-style black and gold frame. The video is coming up light. Use the still images as a reference for color and value.
