"Sun-warmed and vivid. The kind of fruit that tastes like a sultry Mediterranean afternoon."
Blood oranges, rendered in Luna's signature abstract realism, glow against a rich turquoise background in this original acrylic on paper from The Mediterranean Table — Luna Burlo's Works on Paper series.
For Luna, blood oranges are more than a subject, they are a cultural memory. Native to the Mediterranean and deeply embedded in Maltese culture, they connect this painting directly to Luna's birthplace and the warmth and abundance of the table she grew up around.
One of just twelve originals in this collection, painted on 210gsm paper and hand-trimmed to approximately 42 x 54.5cm. A slight variation of up to 0.5cm height may occur — a natural characteristic of a hand-finished work.
For the sun-seeker and the daydreamer. This painting brings the feeling of a clear Mediterranean summer's day into any room it inhabits.
Framing For the above reason, we recommend professional framing, or a standard 50 x 70cm frame with a 40 x 50cm mat board as a cost-effective alternative, though you may lose a few centimeters of height with this option. Most works in this series have been composed with this framing option in mind.
This painting is part of a coordinating set of four, alongside "Figs", "Pomegranates", and, "Lemons". Each shares the same rich turquoise background and Mediterranean warmth. Collect one or collect them all.
