Inspired by the myth of Medusa, Golden Crown portrays her with an elegant 18th-century French-inspired updo, blending beauty with mystery. This screen-printed canvas painting subtl y reveals a single serpent at her neck, alluding to Medusa’s transformation and resilience. Like many ancient stories, the legend of Medusa has been retold, reshaped, reinterpreted, and repurposed over time. Here she is neither a monster nor a temptress. She is a guardian and protector who can turn the male gaze against them. This piece is a playful reinterpretation of this timeless tale, that invites reflection on themes of strength and beauty. 'Golden Crown' Oil & acrylic painting on screen-printed canvas. Size: 43cm x 38cm. Professionally framed in natural oak. Ready to hang. Show more
