About the Item
Oil Portrait of famed Italian actress - Sophia Loren.
About the Artist:
John Francis Gallagher is a Boston-based contemporary artist. Born in Drogheda, Ireland in the Boyne Valley, he emigrated to the United States at 19. John worked in graphic design, advertising and architectural rendering before turning his hand, full-time, to painting. A self-taught figurative artist, his work has a vintage style that is influenced by the so-called pulp artists of the 20th century. In his large-scale canvases, tone is given precedent to create realism. Working within a limited palette of tones, The paint is woven under, over, and into itself in layers to create a portrait that is seemingly simple but satisfyingly complex.
The work has a strong quiet energy that creates space for itself in a frenetic, busy world by being the exact opposite. Often drawn from 1960s European Cinema, the paintings have a psychological charge that marries well with their iconic imagery. His subject matter is often caught in a quiet moment of simple distraction, be it answering a phone or lighting a cigarette; this slight distraction creates a crack in the facade for us to view the human behind the pose.
This is the central aim of the work; to represent a humanity that can capture us as viewers and allow us to relate to the art in a very individual way. While the iconic figures may seem far away and unreachable, the emotion is always universal and close to us all. His work is collected in Australia, Europe, and America.

Sophia Loren - Cherish it - Textural Oil Painting and Image Immersed in Text
By Christina Major
Located in Los Angeles, CA
Christina Major’s "Sophia Loren - Cherish It" is a captivating contemporary portrait that merges hyperrealistic portraiture with layered text, creating a dynamic fusion of depth, emotion, and storytelling. This 49 x 49-inch original painting masterfully captures the timeless beauty of Sophia Loren, with her piercing gaze and luminous complexion enhanced by the artist’s meticulous brushwork. Overlapping layers of hand-painted script weave through the portrait, adding texture and meaning, reflecting themes of wisdom, self-love, and femininity. The interplay of soft pastels and bold contrasts makes this artwork a statement piece for collectors drawn to modern figurative painting, celebrity portraiture, and mixed-media techniques.
Christina Major is a portrait painter interested in the ways the identity of both artist and subject can coexist in a painting. Major's current creative research focuses on the traditional form of the portrait as a powerful form of representing an individual and how meaning can be expanded through scale, brushstroke, color, texture, composition, and the many variables that portraiture deals with.
This one-of-a-kind oil painting is signed by Major on the back. The artwork is wired and ready to hang. It does not require framing. Free local Los Angeles area delivery. Affordable Continental U.S. and International shipping available. A certificate of authenticity issued by the art gallery is included.
