AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

In the past there was a word that has no perfect translation in modern languages: pothos. It indicated the longing for something that is not present. Not necessarily a person. It could be a distant home, a place never visited, a memory, or an unexplored possibility.

Unlike love or passion, pothos did not arise from possession: it arose from distance. For this reason the ancients regarded it as one of the most powerful and enduring feelings.

Perhaps Mediterranean longing does not concern only what we have before our eyes. Perhaps it concerns what continues to attract our attention even when we cannot reach it.

- Originality: Each work is an original piece, accompanied by a certificate of authenticity signed by the artist.
- Condition: The work is professionally mounted on a wooden frame and is ready to hang, without the need for further interventions or finishing.
- Protection: Careful packaging with professional materials to ensure maximum protection during transport.
- Shipping: Fast shipping. For shipments outside the European Union, delivery times may vary depending on local customs procedures.

Some images may show the artwork placed in illustrative settings, to facilitate viewing in different contexts or with different framing options. The proportions are consistent with the actual dimensions of the artwork.
