Dramatic large-scale figurative painting depicting a romantic embrace between two nude figures set against an ethereal backdrop with angelic wings. Rendered in a classical fantasy-inspired style with soft atmospheric tones, the composition evokes themes of love, myth, and spirituality. Signed in the lower corner, though the signature is somewhat indistinct and the artist has not been confidently identified. Presented in an ornate carved gilt frame, making it a striking statement piece for traditional or eclectic interiors.
