Original artwork description:

Photorealistic goldfish painting with a Japanese / Asian oriental twist. Those goldfish have white/silver bodies with big eyes, and beautiful silky fins and tails, and they swim elegantly in the water. The black circles are fish pond and the yellow gold background is sand.

Goldfish are deeply rooted in Japanese culture. From prestigious pets to revered objects of art, the humble goldfish has been considered a symbol of beauty in Japanese art for hundreds of years. They are called "Kingyo" in Japanese.
The goldfish arrived from China, and it has come to be a deeply familiar aquarium fish for Japanese people. It is a particularly beloved summer feature in Japan that will make you feel “coolness” and “healing” with it elegantly swims in the water on a hot summer’s day.
