The Heart of Africa is a stirring landscape of one of the
world's most beautiful and wild places. The viewers of this piece will suddenly
feel that they have been transported to very nearly another world as they gaze
across the savanna at distant mountains and a blazing sunset. Central to The
Heart of Africa is the figures of elephants wandering across the horizon,
casting hulking shadows on the dusty ground, rising above these majestic
figures are several trees that lean into the pink colors of the sky and against
the dark, lingering presence of the mountains that curve gracefully in the
background. This painting depicts the most pleasing of landscapes- one that is
soft around the edges, brimming with life, yet extremely soothing to look at.
The scene is one that settles the soul, as much as it can ever be settled. The
painting has an overwhelming sense of atmosphere and peace, and thus, The Heart
of Africa will make a charming and consoling addition to any room regardless of
its purpose- from a dining area to a living space, this painting will not fail
to create make its presence meaningful.
While the subject of The Heart of Africa is a very
straightforward (while still compelling) landscape, the layout of the piece is
extremely interesting and will throughly engage fans of modernist art. This
painting is spread out across five separate canvas panels, The panels vary in
size, starting quite small at the fringes of the piece, and building to great
length near the center, before diminishing again on the opposite side. This
composition allows the eye to smoothly move across the terrain presented in The
Heart of Africa, as well as allows the viewer to re-envision the scenery
through a more modern lens. Not only does the design of this painting lend it a
modern flair, but it increases the possibilities to explore this original
canvas painting. Due to the separate pieces of The Heart of Africa, it can be
