Proserpine Framed Canvas Replica Painting: Small

Description

Proserpine (similar to the Greek Persephone) was carried off to the underworld by Pluto (Hades), where she ate six pomegranate seeds, resulting in her having to live in the underworld six months out of the year. Rossetti reflected this dichotomy in the composition with the use of light and shadows, and the river Styx is evoked by the swirls of the rich blue velvet gown. One of the founders of the Pre-Raphaelite Brotherhood, Rossetti, poet, translator, illustrator and painter was captivated by the romance and tragedy of classical myths and legends. The authentic stretched canvas replica painting captures the original work’s texture, depth of color, and even its subtle brushstrokes, which are applied by hand exclusively for Design Toscano. Our replica 4.375″ wide, European style, bright gold-toned, ribbed frame is cast in quality designer resin with an acanthus leaf and floret border that draws the eye toward the beautiful image. Proudly printed and framed in the USA using imported molding.Product featuresAuthentic stretched canvas replica paintingCaptures the original work’s depth of color and subtle brushstrokes which are applied by handImported designer resin frames are individually hand-cut for your orderExclusive to the Design Toscano brand and perfect for your home, office or libraryProduct details & specificationsSKUDA5621Dimensions2"Wx16.25"Dx26.25"H.Weight5 lbs.ColorMulti-coloredMaterialCanvasFinishFull Color
