Beatrice Riva’s original contemporary mixed-media painting Waiting for the night on canvas 50 × 50 cm (3 cm thick), depicting an owl, hand-signed, with a Certificate of Authenticity, dated 2026, in excellent condition, sold directly by the artist.
Description from the seller
A magnetic and introspective work that fuses visual art with the poetic depth of synth-pop music. The painting, 50x50 cm in size, depicts a tawny owl immersed in a clear chiaroscuro contrast, a symbol of wisdom and nocturnal mystery.
The title and the soul of the work are a direct homage to the Depeche Mode track "Waiting for the Night." On the canvas is hand-written an iconic verse from the song:
"When everything's dark keeps us from the stark reality"
The use of black and white emphasizes the ethereal and 'vulnerable' atmosphere typical of the artist's expressive exploration, making the subject almost an apparition in the dark. The tactile texture of the canvas adds tridimensionality to a piece inviting silent contemplation.
Technical Details

Dimensions: 50 x 50 cm, canvas thickness 3 cm.
Certificate of Authenticity (CDA): The work is provided with a Certificate of Authenticity signed by the artist, guaranteeing originality and provenance.
