About the Item

This painting captures a quiet yet emotionally charged moment where symbolism gently emerges from everyday life. A woman embraces a black cat whose direct gaze creates an immediate psychological connection with the viewer. Above them, two more cats stand on the roof, suspended between sky and earth, as a crescent moon watches silently. The work explores themes of intuition, belonging, and inner return. Clean architectural forms ground the composition, while the animals introduce a layer of mystery and emotional depth. The restrained palette and stillness invite prolonged contemplation, allowing each viewer to project personal meaning onto the scene. An evocative, narrative-driven artwork suited for collectors who value subtle symbolism, emotional intelligence, and timeless visual storytelling. Dutch acrylic paints Amsterdam tm and Italian canvas by Unico were used. The finish is satin varnish, and the edges are painted in the background color. This painting is created on a pre-stretched canvas on a wooden frame. It is carefully packed in a cardboard box with layers of bubble wrap. The artwork is signed and accompanied by a certificate of authenticity.
