Description

This artwork is inspired by a poem written by the Romanian poet Mihai Eminescu: "Luceafarul" (meaning The Evening Star). It is a lovely poem, about the love between a beautiful human lady and the Evening Star who embodies a man. This year, on the 15th of January, Romanians have celebrated 170 years since his birth. The artpiece has a lovely textural surface; it is painted on a wood cradled panel, which permited her to layer it with different mixed-media. Here is a fragment of the poem: "Blessed into life upon a time In old, royal bowers A maiden of an Eastern clime Grew vying with the flowers. She flushed amidst them as the moon Reigns the canopy of night, The twinkling stars of which she soon Made her loneliness delight. From daring domes of her bowers To the window-ledge she glides, To scrutinize the skies for hours
