Original artwork description:

Inspired by a mascaron of Neptune, the Roman god of the sea, found in Bordeaux, France, this original oil on canvas painting brings a touch of classical mythology to your space. Mascarons, often carved as ornaments for architectural features, were believed to ward off evil spirits while representing deities and the character of a place.

The artist has chosen a light beige background with subtle shades of dark red to emphasize the intricate details and three-dimensional form of Neptune's mask. This modern figurative painting employs a pop art sensibility to bring a classic subject matter into the present day.

This medium-sized artwork is a unique piece, signed on the front and accompanied by a certificate of authenticity. With painted edges, it's ready to hang and enjoy, adding a sophisticated and intriguing focal point to any room. A captivating portrait, this piece is perfect for those who appreciate art with a story.
