Both the Greek Nereid Actaea and the jumping dolphins seen in the blue waters of the Aegean in this treasured work are fabled to befriend sailors caught in dangerous storms. English painter and sculptor Sir Frederic Leighton was honored for his artistic contributions with awards including the Prix de Rome and the French Legion d'Honneur. The authentic stretched canvas replica painting captures the original work's texture, depth of color, and even its subtle brushstrokes, which are applied by hand exclusively for Design Toscano. Our replica European style, bright gold-toned, ribbed frame is cast in quality designer resin with an acanthus leaf and floret border that draws the eye toward the beautiful image. Small: 21.25"Wx15.25"H. framed (13.25"Wx7.25"H. image size, 4"W. frame)
