Original artwork description
This artwork is temporarily unavailable for sale as it will be exhibited in Florence from 7th until 17th March 2026 at Galleria d’Arte OnArt.
The figure at the center of the scene emerges from a soft purple background. Her face is determined, her gaze direct.
In her arms, she holds two large sunflowers, their bright yellow hues standing out as a source of warmth she carefully protects. Her dark hair flows to the right, creating a sense of movement, while her light-colored dress fades into the surrounding space.
The work combines delicacy and strength. The cool colors of the background amplify the light of the sunflowers, which become the symbol of what the protagonist defends: a nucleus of energy, hope, and life.
The atmosphere is suspended, almost dreamlike, and invites us to question what it means to protect something precious.
