Description
Dark Peaks – a burning mountain ridge
A central ridge of dark anthracite spikes, interwoven with gold and silver-white, across a calm grey field: the ridge occupies a broad band through the middle, its sharp dark peaks pointing upward, the tallest clusters left and right of centre.
Technique & Texture
Gold leaf ribbons ride the flanks of every spike, silver-white impasto glows in the heart of the band, and rust-orange oxidation spots are scattered through the centre. This is a hand-painted painting on canvas – the gold and silver are real layers that play in the light.
The Motif
Below the ridge the spikes fray into drips falling toward the bottom, while the upper and lower edges stay softly grey. Mountain peaks that burn – a dramatic rhythm of ascent and fall on a single line.
Styling & Placement
A bold decorative painting for living rooms, offices and reception areas; the anthracite grounds it, and the gold and silver make sure it glows in the evening light. Wall art for rooms with character.

Dark Peaks: a square canvas from living room to reception
Dark Peaks comes in 14 square sizes, from 40 x 40 to 180 x 180 cm. Over a 200 cm sofa choose 130 x 130 or 140 x 140 cm, roughly two thirds of the width, above a bed 160–180 cm wide take 110 x 110 cm, and over a 150 cm sideboard 100 x 100 cm. A reception area or office corridor takes the anthracite spikes at 160 x 160 or 180 x 180 cm, and a short hallway at home 70 x 70 cm.
In the photograph Dark Peaks hangs in a slim gold frame on a white wall of an office lobby beside a corridor with wood-clad pillars. A frame is optional: for Dark Peaks the Frame menu starts at “Without frame”. Pick YES under Stretcher and the grey canvas with its gold-edged spikes arrives stretched on a wooden stretcher, ready to hang. Delivery takes 15–45 days. The painting Dark Peaks is hand-painted with leaf gold and silver-white impasto, so it is not a print.
