“Don't waste your love on somebody, who doesn't value it.”

“All roads indeed lead to Rome, but theirs also is a more mystical destination, some bourne of which no traveler knows the name, some city, they all seem to hint, even more eternal.”  ~ Richard Le Gallienne

Step into a world of vibrant colors and geometric shapes with "Roma Adiacente," an acrylic masterpiece that takes the viewer on a journey through a reimagined landscape. The composition is a symphony of contrasting colors and abstract forms, evoking a sense of otherworldly beauty and mystery.

Prominent tree-like forms dominate the upper half of the canvas, their stylized trunks and canopies rendered in shades of green, yellow, and pink against a backdrop of geometrically abstracted elements that suggest a mystical sky in pink and blue tones. In the lower half, a stylized village or settlement comes to life through a patchwork of colorful, interlocking shapes, representing buildings and architectural details in a mosaic-like tableau.

The overall effect is one of dynamism, capturing an essence of the subject matter without adhering to realistic depiction. "Roma Adiacente" is a true marvel of mystical inspiration, inviting the viewer to explore its enigmatic depths and experience the wonder of a world reimagined.

The image is printed on museum quality archival paper and highlighted with acrylic paint and ink. It is then laminated to a cradled wood panel, varnished, waxed and framed in a black wood floater frame.
