Euripides after de Chirico Obscured by Flowers No. II
A lush cascade of painted flowers obscures and fragments a scene inspired by both Euripidean drama and the enigmatic, dreamlike architecture of Giorgio de Chirico. Hundley layers botanical imagery over classical and surrealist references, creating a tension between concealment and revelation that feels simultaneously theatrical and intimate. The oil on linen surface lends a rich, tactile depth to the composition, reinforcing the work's sense of accumulated meaning buried beneath layers of beauty.
