About this work

The Eiffel Tower is rendered as a near-black silhouette rising through the center of the canvas, its latticed structure reduced to a few dark vertical strokes. Around it explodes a dense field of blossom-like color, patches of pink, coral, and cream mixed with deep teal and green, suggesting fireworks, foliage, or blooming trees rather than a realistic sky or cityscape.

Heavy impasto and dragged palette-knife strokes build up the surrounding color in thick, encrusted layers, while the tower itself is painted flat and dark, almost silhouetted against the glow. The strong contrast between the somber tower and the vivid, saturated surroundings creates a dramatic, almost theatrical mood, turning a familiar landmark into a glowing, dreamlike apparition.
