If you would like to get in touch with me about this or any other painting in my portfolio, please do so via brook829@btinternet.com This is one of 3 paintings inspired by Rimsky Korsakov's wonderful symphonic poem, Scheherazade. The Persian princess is shown telling one of the tales of 1001 nights, "The Sea and Sindbad's Ship". An image of the ship appears between her hands, as though in a crystal ball. The accompanying paintings show the ship on the ocean swell, and an image from the last movement - the wreck. Framed in driftwood from the Scottish Isles.
