The gold columns are actually the side sections of the gold frame used for the Madonna of the rocks in the National Gallery London


Painted in oil on 3D 38mm cotton canvas (canvas size 49 x 39 inches)

The traditional gold frame is modern wood construction
Note shipping this painting with frame will need a wood crate / box hence cost of international shipping is not cheap


Oil paint is finished with Damar varnish

Note due to the size of the full painting photos... the detail & accurate colouring is best observed by looking at the close up photos which have been colour matched as close as possible.
Also the painting aspects have been colour matched as close as possible to Da Vinci's original works as shown on the wiki commons art web pages
