(Last One)

Virginia Lake is an original acrylic on canvas (310 × 230 mm) by New Zealand artist Max Thomson — a quietly atmospheric work that captures a fleeting moment of light, reflection, and stillness.

Softly layered brushstrokes suggest water in motion and a gently arcing bridge dissolving into the surrounding landscape, evoking both place and memory. Intimate in scale yet rich in mood, the painting reflects Thomson’s long-standing relationship with New Zealand’s natural environments, where form emerges through feeling rather than strict realism.

Virginia Lake is a one-of-a-kind artwork — reflective, and deeply rooted in a sense of place.

Dimensions: 255 × 255 mm.

Medium: Acrylic on canvas

Artist: Max Thomson (b. 1945, Wanganui, NZ)

Bridge is a one-of-a-kind artwork — contemplative and rooted in a distinctly New Zealand sensibility.
