Original artwork description:

"Things are not always what they seem; the first appearance deceives many; the intelligence of a few perceives what has been carefully hidden."
This is a quote by Phaedrus (see PLato for reference).

The title of this artwork is rather funny in Danish "Bevar fatningen - brug pæren". Which means keep socket/calm and use bulb/brain, since fatningen and pæren have two meanings each. So I went for a rather shallow punchline of the title in English.

This little gem of a painting will illuminate your study or drawing room and make you smile.

Materials used:

Acrylic, gloss varnish on a quality hand-made Danish canvas, ready to hang since the edge is painted.
