The original work «Queen of Spades» was created by contemporary Russian artist Tutsi Nellis and is available for purchase online.
The acrylic painting «Queen of Spades» is a symbolic female portrait and a surreal artwork.
This painting depicts the powerful and mysterious Queen of Spades, combining portraiture, symbolism, and surrealism into one visually captivating composition. The piece embodies the duality of intellect and intuition, light and darkness, as well as the quiet strength of feminine wisdom.
At the center of the work, the Queen looks directly at the viewer, holding a playing card — the queen of spades — close to her heart. This symbolic gesture evokes themes of inner strength, strategy, and emotional depth. Her dark, flowing hair blends smoothly with the deep velvety background, where scattered playing cards hover suspended, hinting at fate, chance, and the mystery of the human spirit.
Surrounding her are large glowing white peonies, painted with a soft, delicate brush in layered shades of cream, gentle pink, and pale gold. These flowers create a poetic contrast to the somber atmosphere, symbolizing purity, femininity, and transcendence.
Style: symbolic portrait with surreal and floral elements.
