Lemuria

Oil on canvas, glossy varnish; sides painted, ready-to-hang

Description

From Wikipedia:
Lemuria is the name of a hypothetical “lost land” variously located in the Indian and Pacific Oceans. The concept’s 19th-century origins lie in attempts to account for discontinuities in biogeography; however, the concept of Lemuria has been rendered obsolete by modern theories of plate tectonics. Although sunken continents do exist – like Zealandia in the Pacific as well as Mauritia and the Kerguelen Plateau in the Indian Ocean – there is no known geological formation under the Indian or Pacific Oceans that corresponds to the hypothetical Lemuria. Though Lemuria is no longer considered a valid scientific hypothesis, it has been adopted by writers involved in the occult, as well as some Tamil writers of India. Accounts of Lemuria differ, but all share a common belief that a continent existed in ancient times and sank beneath the ocean as a result of a geological, often cataclysmic, change, such as pole shift.

Unique painting using high-quality oil colors on gallery canvas (stapled on the back) stretched over light-weight wooden bars, glossy varnish is applied to seal the painting. Sides are painted, thus no frame necessary – it’s ready to hang. Signed on the front.
Comes with Certificate of Authenticity.
