Umbrella Pines of Rome, Italy

"Umbrella Pines"  Rome, Italy
Oil on Gallery Wrapped Canvas
8'' x 24'' 
$225.00 plus shipping


The unusual shape of the Umbrella Pine is a common sight in Rome, Italy. These trees were imported to the city for the wonderful pine nuts they produce. It is not uncommon to see rows and rows of these interesting trees lining the roads or along the park paths, all sporting a different twist and turn of the trunk. This colorful, original depiction is like a dancing line of trees against a beautiful Roman sky. No need for a frame since this piece has a 1.5” painted wrap along the edges; it is ready to hang for a splash of color where ever needed.
