Description
Gold and Marble – luxury above the smoke
A field of leaf gold commands the top of the canvas across the full width, heaviest and most saturated at the upper right; its lower edge is torn and eroded, and white breaks through it. Down the right side the gold descends in islands and fragments to three quarters of the height.
Technique & Texture
The rest is white-grey marble: soft grey veins and folds climb from the lower left like smoke or creased fabric, and the brightest white glows left of centre. This is a hand-painted work of art – the gold is laid in leaves and cracks where the layer truly breaks.
The Motif
Between the two worlds float tiny gold dots, scattered across the middle of the canvas – sparks that remind the marble who lives above it. Luxury above, softness below: the painting has a crown and a soul.
Styling & Placement
An elegant decorative painting for living rooms, bedrooms and reception areas; the gold catches the evening light, and the marble lower half ties the painting to light walls and stone.

Gold and Marble – upright sizes
Gold and Marble is painted in 16 upright sizes, from 40 x 63 to 200 x 319 cm. For narrow walls, between doors or in an alcove choose 50 x 79 or 60 x 95 cm, beside a wardrobe 80 x 127 cm, and above a console about a metre wide 70 x 111 cm, roughly two thirds of its width. On a stairwell wall the gold crown comes into its own at 100 x 159 or 110 x 175 cm. In the photograph it hangs in an optional thin gold frame on a wood-panelled wall above a light sofa.
The leaf gold and the grey-veined white marble are hand-painted on canvas, so this painting is not a print. Select YES under Stretcher and Gold and Marble arrives stretched on a wooden stretcher, ready to hang. A frame for Gold and Marble is picked in the Frame menu, which starts at Without frame. Delivery of Gold and Marble takes 15–45 days.

Is a gold frame included with Gold and Marble?
No, a frame for Gold and Marble is optional, the Frame menu defaults to Without frame, and you add one to the gold and marble only if you wish.
Does Gold and Marble arrive ready to hang?
Yes, the canvas with its leaf gold is stretched on a wooden stretcher before it ships once you select YES under Stretcher.
Can Gold and Marble be painted in an unlisted size?
If none of the 16 sizes between 40 x 63 and 200 x 319 cm fits, ask us about a painting made to order.
