Mid-Century Modern Framed Original Oil Painting The River Styx With Glowing Sun

About the Item

A quite beautiful and mesmerizing Mid-Century Modern original oil painting titled "The River Styx" featuring a fiery burning orange/yellow sun rising through a blood red sky above the famed dark mythical Greek underworld river that separates the realm of the living world from the realm of the dead (Hades) and of which the ferryman Charon had to take the souls of the recently departed across.
