The lost throne (2024)Oil painting
by Yue Zeng

The idea for “The lost throne” started with the big tree. It suited for a throne in my mind. But who would put a throne in the woods? Then I thought about Maya pyramid. People once believed that Maya built their pyramid inside the forest. But in fact, the forest reclaimed the area after Maya abandoned their buildings.

So, the throne be abandoned by its owner and covered by the trees over time. It is standing there silently, only couple of stairs left. But I feel lifeless if there is only a throne and trees. After several attempts, I put in a little kitten at the bottom of the stairs. The little kitten shows a living creature that walks by this ancient throne.

The kitten will leave eventually and the throne stays by itself for as long as time allows.

Although I tried my best to match the digital image the same as actual painting but the color may vary due to different monitor and monitor settings. Please be aware of this fact.
Hope you enjoy this one. :D
