Description from the seller
モナのキモノ時代
私は Florence を kimono に取り替え、 Da Vinci のニヤリ笑いを少し知性的にクールなものへ置き換えた。二匹の黒猫が私のそばで宮廷を守り、帯は秘密のように解けていく。私の後ろには teal の月が浮かぶ――惑星か、それとも風船か。誰にも分からない。五世紀以上続く「彼女は何を笑っているのか」という問いに、私はいまだ答えない。モナ、リミックスされ、動じず。
-- Dimensions: 100 x 75 x 2.5 cm
-- Mounting: Professionally hand-stretched on a wooden chassis.
-- Framing: None (no external frame); painted edges ready for display.
-- Medium: Premium artists' oil colors on fine canvas.
-- Style: Psychological Surrealism with a smooth brush texture.

-- COA: Hand-signed Certificate of Authenticity included.

About the Artist
Enigma is an Italian surrealist who paints their own likeness into worlds of pure imagination - not to tell a story, but to ask a question.
The figures are deliberately genderless, blending masculine and feminine so no single identity stands between the viewer and the canvas.
Reality bends through frames within frames: rooms open onto other rooms, other skies, other selves, rendered in smooth, luminous brushwork and blocks of bold, contrasting color.
Each painting is a dreamscape where memory, symbol, and self dissolve into one another - and every canvas is one of a kind, never repeated.
