Description
Amber eyes of a big maned lion take center stage above two little lion cubs that he guards in the vast African wonderland. The memory of a magnificent lion resting at twilight inspired this captivating wall art. The radiant sun setting behind smoky blue hills is reflected in a watering hole and saturates this safari image with African landscape colors.
The framed prints capture the father lion lying with front legs outstretched facing the picture’s left where a waterhole reflects the distant sunset. He gazes at the viewer above two cubs who are his pride and joy. Beneath his chin, one cub faces the viewer resting her head on her paw. Her brother uses her as his pillow snuggling into the warmth of family ties. Beautifully detailed, this big cat art captures how fading light sparkles in their eyes, sculpts faces, and accents lustrous coats and flowing mane. A delight for nature lovers, this captivating family portrait makes a perfect Father’s Day gift for Dads with their own pride.
