Near The Village

More about Near The Village

An intricate and surreal oil painting in the style of Gustav Klimt features a central, gnarled, dark-brown tree with twisting roots extending into a stone pathway. This pathway curves upwards to the right. The tree’s branches, largely bare, are adorned with scattered, vibrant leaves and several small, colorful eggs or spheres. In the middle ground to the left, a quaint village with multi-storied houses, some with red roofs and steeples, is nestled in a grassy field where a few sheep and cows graze.

Above the village, an inventive flying machine resembling a dark blue manta ray with intricate golden patterns on its fuselage, flies horizontally from left to right. It has an eyeball design at its center and a sharp arrow-like tail. Two smaller, dark bird-like planes fly behind it. A white cloud floats above the village.

The background is a dynamic mosaic of rectangular and square blocks in shades of teal, blue, green, and orange, creating a stained-glass effect. A bright yellow segment glows behind the tree. Numerous small birds are scattered across the sky, with three prominent ones circling near the tree. A white clock with Roman numerals is visible in the upper mid-left section of the background.
