Connected Souls - Couple Embracing, Floral Background, Original Oil Painting
By Bruno Surdo
Located in Chicago, IL
This painting reveals Bruno Surdo’s fluency in merging Renaissance figure painting with Symbolist and Pre-Raphaelite sensibilities. A young woman lies nestled in a field of daisies, wrapped in soft drapery and cradling a red book to her chest, while a monarch butterfly hovers near her hand. The composition recalls the reclining female figures of Titian and Giorgione, yet the setting shifts from mythological landscape to an immersive, almost Edenic field of flowers. Surdo’s atelier training is evident in the sculptural modeling of the body and the careful handling of light across skin and fabric. The figure possesses the volumetric presence of High Renaissance painting, yet she is embedded in a richly detailed natural environment that feels intimate rather than grand. Art historically, the work resonates strongly with the Pre-Raphaelites—particularly artists like John Everett Millais and John William Waterhouse—whose depictions of women in lush floral settings combined realism with poetic symbolism. The daisies traditionally symbolize innocence and purity, while the butterfly evokes transformation, the soul, and ephemerality—motifs frequently explored in Symbolist painting. The red book introduces narrative ambiguity: knowledge, memory, or interior life held protectively against the body. Unlike Surdo’s more theatrical mythological or urban allegories, this composition feels contemplative and inward. Yet it still aligns with his broader practice of grounding contemporary psychological states in the language of art history. The painting becomes a meditation on introspection, metamorphosis, and the quiet tension between innocence and awakening, rendered with the authority of classical draftsmanship and layered with 19th-century poetic symbolism.

Jason and Medea - Greek Mythological Couple Inspired Diptych of Love and Tragedy
By Richard Gibbons
Located in Chicago, IL
The Greek myth of Medea, the enchantress who helped Jason, leader of the Argonauts, obtain the magical Golden Fleece, is a classic story of betrayal and vengeance. Like many Greek myths, this one too has a tragic ending. She was of divine descent and had the gift of prophecy and married Jason. Theirs's was a passionate beginning but when Jason found another, Medea made the ultimate sacrifice by killing the children the two shared. Jason, Medea and the Golden Fleece is one of the oldest myths of a hero's quest. Gibbons portrays the hero as a bare-chested god with a halo of roses and gold. The Heroine is portrayed with a golden crown and an aura of golden rays surrounding her. His soft features and partially opened lips and her sultry gaze add to the sensuousness of their passionate love affair. The paintings are framed in a simple walnut wooden frames measuring 21.5 x 17.5 inches each. Richard Gibbons Jason and Medea...
