AI-assisted summary
Description from the seller
Antonio Sciacca – Goddess and Coral
Oil on canvas, 70 × 60 cm
Sold with black frame
Unique piece
The original work by master Antonio Sciacca, Goddess and Coral, is an oil on canvas of strong symbolic suggestion and visual impact. On an intense, vibrant, and tactile red background, the profile of a female figure of classical inspiration emerges, suspended in a silent dialogue with a natural form that recalls coral, an organic and archaic element, symbol of life, protection, and transformation.
The composition, essential yet charged with poetic tension, relates the face of the goddess – firm, hieratic, timeless – to the branched fragility of coral, creating a refined contrast between human and natural, eternal and mutable. The brushstroke is precise, controlled, with a plastic rendering that evokes sculptural and metaphysical suggestiveness.
The work is signed lower right by the artist and authenticated on the reverse, and is to be considered a unique piece. Ideal for collectors and for contemporary environments seeking a work with character, culture, and a strongly identitarian identity.
