Bold, dark and sensual, this incredible original oil painting by Hamish Blakely indicates the artist's immense skill as well as his passion for art history due to its resemblance to a number of key artworks by old masters.

Venus, the Roman goddess of love and fertility, is one of the most portrayed figures of femininity and perfection in art history.  Often depicted nude in a sensual position of half-modesty, she has been rendered by Titian and Botticelli to name a few Italian Renaissance examples. You need only look at Botticelli's iconic 'The Birth of Venus' to see the similarities between the two stunning paintings; only this one, you can own!

Elegant, powerful and desirable, Hamish's stunning contemporary interpretation is now part of the ongoing, historical journey of the goddess who has enraptured artists for centuries.
