Inky 'black star' calla lily blossoms and deep green foliage are set on a dusky golden backdrop in this alluring scene. In Roman mythology, calla lilies, or arums, were considered so beautiful that they were the envy of Venus, Goddess of Love. This original oil painting on an extra deep custom wood panel is gilded with metal leaf. It’s golden sides gleam from every angle and give it a real presence in a room. This piece has a sister; Venus in Blanc. See it in my listings!
