Sacred Meeting is a striking original painting on canvas depicting Christ in an intimate encounter with a haloed female figure. Rendered in a stylized, old-world manner reminiscent of medieval and early devotional art, the figures meet before a warm architectural backdrop in a rich palette of burgundy, forest green, ochre and gold.
Deep burgundy, forest green, ochre and gold give the painting a wonderfully rich palette, while the simplified forms and architectural details lend it the character of an illuminated manuscript or historic European religious painting. Painted directly on canvas, the piece has a distinctive handmade quality and presence that reproductions simply cannot replicate.
An unusual and soulful piece for a collected interior, it would be especially beautiful displayed among antique portraits, ecclesiastical pieces, old books and traditional artwork.
