Hypnotic and rich butterfly painting “Lethe chandica” (The Angled Red Forester) is full of colours, from soft light grey violets, through yellows and browns to intense brick oranges and steel greys. This butterfly is full of sublime beauty, nuances, and shades as well as interesting colour combinations. Many ‘eyes’ watch us from the butterfly’s wings, but the drawing itself is quite simple. What distinguishes it, however, is the multitude of overlapping and permeating colours.
This painting is eye-catching and stunning thanks to its kaleidoscope of colours, but it is not heavy and intrusive. The light, airy, bluish background adds lightness to the entire composition. It is a painting that would enliven and brighten any space. Perfect for both modern interiors and rooms decorated in a rustic style.
