Teti (2026) Original Oil Painting by Lorenzo Capitta (Pagoda Swanson)

62.5 x 122 x 1cm

£1,250.37

“Teti” reimagines Thetis, the sea goddess and mother of Achilles, through a surreal encounter between mythology and an underwater world.

A figure wearing a vintage diving helmet emerges from flowing blue fabric that twists and curls like ocean waves. A vivid red background contrasts with the blues, while the golden helmet and elaborate ruff bring a theatrical quality to the composition.

The folds blur the boundary between dress and sea: the figure seems both surrounded by the water and part of it. Combining a mythological reference with an unexpected costume, the painting offers a playful, contemporary vision of an ancient sea deity.

This original painting measures 60 × 125 × 1 cm (width × height × depth) and is offered unframed.
