About the Item

A muscular male is seated on a chair, his eyes closed and head tilted toward the sky soaking up the warmth of the sun. "Sogni D'Oro", meaning sweet dreams, is set upon an intricate backdrop of ornate floral designs in deep burgundy and gold tones, framing the figure by not only a gold wooden frame but the wonderful wallpaper backdrop. The actual gold frame measures 21.5 x 17.5 x 1.5 inches.

Landscape of Man - Close-Up Nude Male Body Lying Down, Original, Oil on Panel
By Richard Gibbons
Located in Chicago, IL
Through this artwork the artist achieves to decontextualize the subject and give it an entirely new meaning. By comparing the subject to the likeness of nature itself, the warm tones and smooth textures resemble that of a dune. Throughout this piece, the artist expands on a completely new take on the nude painting. The subtleties, intricacies and attention to detail really transform this piece into an ode to the human figure.
