Red Gorgon on Brass Base H32x50cm
€348.00Red gorgon on a brass base.
Red gorgonians (Acabaria biserialis) line the rocky slopes between 20 and 100 meters deep. It is necessary to use a flashlight to appreciate their brilliance, because at this depth, the red appears dark blue.
Attached perpendicular to their support, the colonized polyp branches filter the water with the current to capture the micro-organisms in suspension.
Gorgonians, like corals, are animals living in the form of sessile colonial polyps, organized in a tree structure. Each polyp has 8 tentacles which filter the plankton and consume it. The general structure, a skeleton both flexible and hard, called gorgonine do not grow towards the sun (it does not require light to develop) but perpendicular to the current, so as to filter a maximum of water flow.
A very beautiful decorative object.

Anamorphosis Napoleon Bonaparte under Globe
€480.00Anamorphosis Napoleon Bonaparte under Globe
Anamorphosis was born from the work on perspective by Piero della Francesca, a Florentine painter and mathematician of the Quattrocento.
This Art of secret perspective allows, thanks to a “trompe-l’oeil” technique, to create an impression of reality by restoring a 3rd dimension.
We were inspired by this technique to create Anamorphoses-Butterflies: at first glance, the eye is charmed by a colorful and poetic flight of butterflies... then suddenly, the unexpected image springs out and reveals itself to the viewer and doubles it perception appears.
In reality, a master painting serves as a motif for the butterflies, while the butterfly recreates a master painting...
Presented under a glass globe, so that this anamorphosis does not disperse on your walls!
