Original artwork description:

The woman in the foreground, an emblem of the “Q of Spades,” one of the French playing cards, with the only eye visible in the profile face that dominates the center of the painting, along with the vessel that is outlined between the two figures, scrutinizes, questions or ideally heads toward an “elsewhere.” Also emerging in the painting is a glimpse of the most eloquent testament to 14th-century Florentine Gothic architecture, Giotto's famous Campanile, which is overlooked by the mysterious apparitions. I used oil to delineate this fusion of reality and dream, where figurative elements meet a metaphysical and symbolic world. The work, steeped in surrealism, weaves faces and architecture into a dance of shapes and colors. Emotions flow freely, inviting the viewer to a deep reflection on existence beyond the visible. Bringing this canvas into one's home adds a touch of mystery and a contemplative energy that stimulates the mind and soul.
