A still life by French Surrealist painter Pierre Roy, *La naissance de Vénus* features a collection of objects arranged on a beach, including a seashell, eggs, hair, and coral.
Pierre Roy (1880-1950) was a French Surrealist painter known for his meticulous technique and unsettling juxtapositions of objects. Although he initially trained as an architect, Roy turned to painting, developing a style characterised by precise realism and dreamlike imagery. He exhibited with the Surrealists in the 1920s and 1930s, though his work maintains a distinctive character within the movement. His paintings often feature unexpected combinations of natural and artificial elements, rendered with a smooth, almost photographic finish. *La naissance de Vénus* presents a collection of objects arranged on what appears to be a beach. A large seashell holds two speckled eggs, while a length of hair tied with a blue ribbon rests atop a classical plinth. Coral sits on top of the plinth. The background shows a calm sea and sky, painted in muted tones. The painting's title alludes to the classical myth of Venus's birth from the sea, but the objects themselves create a sense of mystery and displacement, typical of Surrealist art.

Beautiful print, great quality and love it with the white frame. Delivery was really fast. I've had loads of compliments from visitors as I've hung it in my hallway as the first thing you see when you enter the house. Couldn't be happier.
