Salvador Di Quinzio
Scheherazade
Acrylic on Belgian Linen
12 7/8" X 10 7/8" X 1 7/8" (framed)
2024
Inspired by the stories in "1001 Arabian Nights" and details of the life of the young beautiful Scheherazade, wife of the Sultan. Of-course, Di Quinzio put a slightly different twist on the story and made Scheherezade the embodiment of the ideals, bribery, wit, and cleverness needed to survive in a world surrounded by powerful men.
Salvador Di Quinzio infuses his interest for the human figure and the use of symbolic structures in his original acrylic paintings to create a pictorial bridge that is imbued in his subconscious world and the physical environment that surrounds him.
