John Tarantola
"Pieta" (2021) By John Tarantola, Surrealistic Nude Portrait Oil Painting

2021

About the Item

John Tarantola's original nude portrait "Pieta" (2021) is a beautiful surrealist oil on panel painting that depicts two young athletic male figures atop a red cloth in vast desert dunes, one resting on an impossible ledge while the other lays in death on his lap. A skull is carefully placed on the sand to the right of the pair. Denver artist John Tarantola paints images that invoke classicism and lost love in the spaces where others should be.
