About the Item

I think this is one of the finest paints Gustavo Novoa has done. It's from his early period in the mid-1970s. I am privileged to own it. The artist creates a dreamy world of magical plants with a reflecting pond populated by two leopards greeting each other. I it superbly painted. Everywhere you look at the painting, it is interesting as it's fascinating. I can not stop looking at it, and each time I do it transports me to this magically peaceful place. It looks better in person. Signed and dated lower right 1976. Gallery inventory number on verso. Elegant period wood frame with artist's name plaque.
