About the Item

Dimension with frame :92.3 x 60.5 x 2.5 cm This captivating work presents a striking still life in which game hangs upside down, evoking a scene after the hunt. The detailed plumage, in shades of brown, black, and blue, creates a fascinating contrast with the textured background in earthy tones. A slender, delicate blue vase contains dried flowers, adding a touch of melancholic poetry to the whole. The artist achieves a subtle balance between realism and abstraction, using expressive brushstrokes that infuse the composition with a particular dynamism. The bold arrangement of elements, juxtaposing life and death, captures the ephemeral while inviting reflection on beauty in simplicity. This painting stands out for its emotional depth and raw aestheticism, creating an unforgettable and meaningful visual experience.
