Description
“Maximus” – Oil Painting – portrait of a Lion.
The first encounter with a lion is a moment that marks for life. Whether during a photo safari or a hunt, meeting the gaze of the king of the savannah does not leave you unscathed.
With each new painting, I ask myself the question: what is the purpose of this piece, what is the message that I am going to convey, what is the emotion I want to convey?
I firmly believe that we all carry within us the memory of our ancestors, a survival instinct, a hunter’s instinct, which makes us have this ancestral fear of the predator. I am captivated by the lion, I feel a primal fear mixed with fascination. that’s exactly what I want to convey in this array. I want to create a silent dialogue between man and beast, to find this irrational fear in his gaze.
I want to give my representation of the lion in all its majesty and savagery. The image of the ultimate predator, it must be both beautiful and menacing. We find this duality in the opposition of warm tones and cold tones.The composition is raw, essential: portrait, without embellishment in chiaroscuro. The gaze is piercing, you have to get lost in it and not be able to get out.
Finally, I detail more precisely the eyes, the muzzle and the mouth. The rest of the head loses focus in order to capture the viewer’s gaze more.
The title of this painting is “Maximus”, superlative of Magnus in Latin which means the greatest.
