Object Description
This enchanting original wildlife and interior painting captures the playful collision of nature and classical art through a contemporary impressionist lens. Oil on canvas brings the scene to life with rich, vibrant hues. At the heart of the composition, three adorable pandas are depicted within a surreal indoor setting. The central panda, gracefully perched inside a seashell, is an unmistakable nod to Botticelli’s iconic “The Birth of Venus.” Above, a majestic blue whale floats serenely, defying gravity, adding to the dreamlike atmosphere. The background walls are painted in calming blue tones, providing a striking contrast to the outside world seen through the windows, where modern skyscrapers rise high into the sky. Stripes of bold, colorful accents animate the scene, making the composition pop with energy and whimsy.
The overall color scheme is bright and bold, harmonizing the fantasy with the real world. Neven’s signature style radiates throughout this imaginative blend of wildlife, interiors, and art history. The artwork is signed, ready to grace its next space. Available for sale at Signet Contemporary Art, Chelsea, and online.
