The Sea Urchin mosaic takes inspiration from an element present in the Asaroton preserved in the Vatican Museums.
Our interpretation of the Sea Urchin is an explosion of colours. The interior of the Sea Urchin creates a symbiosis between light and color creating three-dimensionality. The spines, in stark contrast with the inside of the hedgehog and the background, are dark but even in this case we decided to give them movement with different shades of black and dark brown.
The workmanship in Opus Vermiculatum is very fine and accurate, the gaps between the tiles are neutralized to have an excellent visual rendering of the subject even when observed from very close up.
Everything is perfectly balanced and in harmony.
The choice of the Classic Travertine Marble Frame is designed to blend in with the pink Trani background so that the Sea Urchin stands out in all its splendor.
The design of the frame is also particular, the two holes on the back will allow you to hang the picture on the wall without creating thicknesses between the picture and the wall (just insert two Fishers on the wall taking into account the distance of the holes on the frame).
We recommend not hanging the painting on plasterboard walls.
