TITLE: “Storia di San Giorgio”

Original painting in modern style, 39.37 x 39.37 inches (100x100cm), acrylic, spray and gold leaf on canvas, Alessandro Siviglia 2026

A modern and powerful work that reinterprets the legend of Saint George and the Dragon through Alessandro Siviglia’s distinctive style.
Hand‑painted with mixed media—spray, acrylic, and gold leaf—this 100 × 100 cm canvas is an original, unique piecewith strong visual impact.

The painting shows Saint George on horseback, fearless as he defeats the dragon threatening the city of Libya and the young princess chosen for sacrifice. The white horse, symbol of purity and strength, dominates the scene, while the dragon, crushed in flames, represents evil defeated.

A red and gold background, filled with castles and medieval symbols, adds an epic and spiritual atmosphere. The work becomes a universal symbol of the victory of good over evil, of faith overcoming fear, and of courage that brings freedom.

The symbolic meaning is clear: Saint George stands for protection, light, and faith. The dragon represents evil, struggles, and life’s challenges. The freed princess symbolizes hope restored. The use of gold leaf recalls sacred icons and the Byzantine tradition, giving the painting a timeless sacred quality.
It is a true sacred battle, expressed through contemporary art enriched with gold leaf.

This artwork is perfect for those who want a piece that blends spirituality, history, and modern art.

It is ideal for sacristies, rectories, parish halls, and churches dedicated to Saint George. It is also meaningful in the homes of people named George or living in places called Saint George. As a prestigious gift, it suits bishops, priests, theologians, and scholars of sacred art, as well as collectors of medieval themes in a modern style and lovers of Christian iconography.
Its strong presence also enhances living rooms, studies, entrance halls, and both classic and contemporary interiors.

The painting works beautifully as a centerpiece in a living room, a professional study, a library, a representative entrance, or in religious and meditation spaces. It looks best on large, bright walls.
Ideal colors include white, ivory, and warm beige, as well as darker tones like midnight blue, anthracite gray, and burgundy. Rooms with gold details, dark wood, or light marble enhance its elegance. The red and gold tones of the artwork stand out beautifully against neutral or dark backgrounds.

The technical details confirm its uniqueness: the title is “The Story of Saint George”, measuring 100 × 100 cm, created with mixed media (spray, acrylic, gold leaf) on canvas mounted on a stretcher. The author is Alessandro Siviglia, a contemporary Italian painter. It is an original, unique, signed work, complete with a certificate of authenticity.
